As most of us are spending our days at home (we all should if we can), I‘m hoping this post about storing pantry items comes in handy Stay safe and healthy my loves, we’re in this together! x . What I store in my pantry vs fridge varies on how fast I move through the items and quantities I have at the time. I typically buy nuts, seeds, beans, grains, etc. in bulk. I store what I’ll eat in the upcoming weeks or months in the pantry and the rest in the fridge/freezer. If they’re not stored properly, they‘ll go rancid or stale quickly. ↡ General rules I follow for storing nuts: • Use air-tight glass containers. • Whole nuts keep better than chopped or ground nuts. • Roasted nuts turn rancid quicker than raw nuts. • Shelled nuts have shorter shelf life than nuts in the shell. • Nuts absorb odors, keep them away from smelly foods like onions. • Light, heat, humidity and excess moisture cause nuts to spoil faster. • Store at room temp for 3 months, fridge for 6 months and freezer for a year. • Label containers with the date of purchase to keep track of which to consume first. ↡ If you have enough fridge or freezer space I would recommend popping them in there right away to keep everything fresh — you don’t have to worry about any food going to waste ↡ Full post is up on my blog (link in bio @raw_manda) and for those asking it includes what jars and label maker I use If you have any super rad storage tips or just want to show some love, leave your comments below posted on Instagram - https://ift.tt/39ekhcD -- source link
