How to Store Exotic Fruits for Maximum Freshness
Introduction
Exotic fruits are delicate and require proper storage to retain their taste, texture, and nutrients. Here’s a guide to keeping your favorite imported fruits fresh for longer.
1. Store at the Right Temperature
- Refrigerate: Blueberries, Cherries, Mangosteen, Kiwis
- Room Temperature: Bananas, Mangoes, Pineapples (until ripe)
- Cool & Dry Place: Dragon Fruit, Rambutan, Avocados (until ripe)
2. Use Airtight Containers
For berries and cut fruits, store them in airtight containers to prevent moisture loss and spoilage.
3. Keep Fruits Separated
Some fruits release ethylene gas, which speeds up ripening. Keep Bananas, Apples, and Avocados away from other fruits to avoid early spoilage.
4. Freeze for Long-Term Use
Want to enjoy seasonal fruits year-round? Freeze berries, sliced mangoes, or kiwis for smoothies and desserts.
