1. Make sure your fridge is at the correct temperature
You want to make sure your fridge is cold enough to keep food fresh without freezing it. The recommended temperature is 38-40°F. For increased accuracy, get a fridge thermometer.
2. Roast tomatoes
Have you noticed your tomatoes starting to wrinkle? Get an extra week with tomatoes by roasting tomatoes and storing in a container filled with olive oil. Refrigerate.
3. Add butter to cheese
Rub the cut edges of your cheese with butter. This keeps hard cheese from drying out.
4. Avocados
Keep your avocados on the counter until ripe. This usually takes two or three days, depending on their state when you bought them. When they soften a bit, store them in the fridge to keep them from going bad. If you are storing half an avocado, make sure to wrap in an airtight bag before putting in fridge.
