We are all accustomed to putting fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator to keep them fresh, but in fact, some fruits and vegetables are not suitable for storage in the refrigerator. Well, tomatoes are one of the fruits and vegetables that are not recommended to be put in the refrigerator.
This is because after the tomatoes are frozen at low temperatures, the flesh will appear blister-like, soft and rotten, and may fall apart. The tomatoes may also have dark spots on their skin, may be undercooked, and may not be cooked properly. In the case of umami taste, it will rot and deteriorate in severe cases. So how do tomatoes need to be preserved? Let me introduce it to you below:
1. Store at room temperature
Putting tomatoes stem-side down and storing them at room temperature can prevent air from entering the tomatoes and also prevent the tomatoes from entering. Moisture is emitted from the scar on the pedicle and can be preserved for about 1 week.
2. Store in plastic bags
Put the complete half-ripe tomatoes into a plastic food bag, tie it tightly, and place it in a cool place at room temperature. And open the bag once a day and ventilate it for about 5 minutes. If there is water in the plastic bag, dry it with a towel or change it to another plastic bag.
Finally, a warm reminder, it is recommended to eat fresh fruits and vegetables, which are healthy and nutritious. The longer tomatoes are left, the more nutrients will be lost, and they will also easily rot and deteriorate. Tomatoes can no longer be eaten.
