Strawberries

Fruit

STORE
EXTEND
FREEZE

Take berries home immediately after purchase and store in the refrigerator. Store in the high-humidity crisper drawer in a breathable bag or the original container. Consume strawberries within one to three days. Wash only as many berries as you intend to eat or prepare at that time.

Bruised, faded, or dry strawberries can be revived by placing them in icewater for 20 minutes. Do not do this with moldy or rotten strawberries.

When you have too many strawberries to use right away, freeze them! Wash, dry and hull the berries. Spread a single layer on shallow trays and place in freezer (lining pans with parchment paper will prevent sticking). Once frozen, package in freezer safe containers, label and return to freezer. This pack allows portions to be used when needed.
