3. Celery and Carrots

Avoid using the original plastic bags they came in.
Better method: Wash them, place them in glass jars filled with water, seal, and refrigerate. This keeps them fresh for up to 7 days.

4. Herbs
Don’t toss drying herbs!
Better method: Freeze them in ice cube trays with a little olive oil. They’ll be preserved and ready to use for cooking anytime.

5. Salad
Salad often wilts quickly due to moisture buildup.
Better method: Store it in a container or bag lined with kitchen paper. The paper absorbs excess moisture, keeping the greens crisp and fresh for days.
