Fresh Apple Storage Ingredients
- 2 boxes of apples (approx. 24 apples)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Here we have two boxes of fresh, shiny, and appetizing apples! Just looking at them makes your mouth water, right? Let’s discover how we can keep these delicious fruits fresh for an even longer time.
Step 2
First, take a close look at each apple as you remove it from the box. It’s crucial to check for any bruises or damaged spots. We’ll select only the clean and fresh apples to proceed to the next step.
Step 3
Now for the most important part. To prevent moisture loss from the apple’s surface and minimize contact with the outside air, wrap each apple individually and thoroughly with plastic wrap. Ensure the wrap adheres closely to the apple’s shape without any looseness.
Step 4
We’ve now individually wrapped all 24 apples. That’s 12 apples per box, totaling 24, all secured with wrap. This process significantly reduces moisture loss, helping to maintain their crispness for a long time.
Step 5
Next, place the wrapped apples into hygienic plastic bags, dividing them into appropriate quantities. It’s best not to pack them too tightly; leave a little room for air circulation. Gently close the bag opening to prevent air from entering.
Step 6
Store these prepared apples neatly in your refrigerator’s fruit and vegetable drawer. This drawer maintains the optimal temperature and humidity for keeping fruits fresh. With this storage method, your apples will stay crisp and delicious for a long time, allowing you to enjoy a refreshing, crunchy, and sweet apple every morning!
