1. Choose Fresh Strawberries
- Inspect Before Buying: Look for bright red, plump berries without bruises or mold. Avoid any with green or white patches.
2. Store in the Refrigerator
- Keep Them Cold: Store strawberries in the refrigerator as soon as possible. The cold temperature slows down spoilage.
3. Use a Ventilated Container
- Breathable Packaging: Store strawberries in a container that allows air circulation. A paper towel-lined container helps absorb moisture.
4. Don’t Wash Until Ready to Eat
- Minimize Moisture: Washing strawberries before storage introduces moisture, which can lead to mold. Wash them just before consumption.
5. Remove Bad Berries
- Inspect Regularly: Check your strawberries daily and remove any that are moldy or overripe to prevent spoilage from spreading.
