Berries are delicious, but they're also kind of delicate.
Raspberries, in particular, seems like they can mold before you
even get them home from the market.
There's nothing more tragic than paying $4 for a pint of local
raspberries, only to look in the fridge the next day and find that fuzzy
mold growing on their insides.
Well, with fresh berries just starting to hit farmers markets, we can tell
you how to keep them fresh!
Here’s a tip I’m sharing on how to prevent them from getting
to the moldy point in the first place:
Wash them with vinegar.
When you get your berries home, prepare a mixture of one part vinegar
(white or apple cider probably work best) and ten parts water.
Dump the berries into the mixture and swirl around. Drain, rinse if you
want (though the mixture is so diluted you can't taste the vinegar,) and pop
in the fridge.
The vinegar kills any mold spores and other bacteria that might be on the
surface of the fruit, and voila! Raspberries will last a week or more, and strawberries
go almost two weeks without getting moldy and soft. So go forth and stock up on
those pricey little gems, knowing they'll stay fresh as long as it takes you to eat them.
You're so berry welcome!0 -

Thanks for the tip! I am going to try this. I have also had success storing berries in mason jars instead of the container they come in.0
