Keeping Strawberries fresh for a week

Stanley Stephan | May 25, 200202:55 PM     35

Probably everyone knows this, but it was news to me 2 years ago. To keep strawberries fresh for a week in the fridge:
- Line a tupperware container with a paper towel
- Place a single layer of unbruised straberries in container.
- cover with paper towel and seal with tupperware lid

Fresh strawberries until the next market.

Another great tip is for celery. If you wrap it in aluminum foil it last for weeks in the vegetable bin. No more limp celery (works best if you remove leaves).
