Always wash strawberries right before eating—not before storing.

Keep them dry and cool to prevent mold growth.

If you notice moisture buildup in the container, replace the paper towels and dry the container.

Eat the ripest berries first—they’ll spoil faster.

If you want to go a step further, you can freeze strawberries for long-term storage. Simply hull and slice the berries, spread them on a baking sheet to freeze individually, then transfer to a freezer bag. This is perfect for smoothies or baking.

FAQ:

Q: Why shouldn’t I wash strawberries before storing?
A: Moisture speeds up spoilage. Washing adds moisture, making berries more prone to mold unless thoroughly dried.

Q: How long will strawberries last with this method?
A: Properly stored, strawberries can last up to 7 days in the fridge—sometimes longer.

Q: Can I use apple cider vinegar instead of white vinegar?
A: Yes, though white vinegar is preferred due to its neutral flavor and stronger antimicrobial properties.

Q: Do I need a special storage container?
A: Not necessarily, but a breathable produce container or a container with the lid slightly ajar helps control moisture.
