Keep well

In order to keep a pineapple for as long as possible I slice it into discs, chop up the discs (discarding the centre bit) and then store the pieces in a lidded container in the fridge.




For carrots I peel and store the carrots in cold water in the fridge. The will last for a week this way and not shrivel or go mouldy.



Job done. Just got to find room in the fridge.


Keep well!

  1. I try to so as much prep as possible when I bring my fruit and veg home. It makes absolute sense to keep it in tip top condition.

    1. Garden is just great - weeded to death because of lockdown and lovely to just sit in. Big changes for next year - going to grass over the veggie patch.

  3. Thanks Mum for these tips....always handy how to preserve food longer. I only found out the other day that I could freeze bananas....great when you have bananas which are over ripe. Keep well Amanda x

  6. I love the tip for storing carrots cleaned and in water in the fridge. It will make meal prep go faster and the carrots stay fresher.

    1. It's surprising how long they keep. I change the water every so often.
