Don’t put the endless mooncakes in the refrigerator directly. Let me teach you a way to put them in the New Year without any problem
Mooncakes are a traditional holiday delicacy in my country, symbolizing reunion. So every year when this festival comes, everyone has to buy some or make some. It is also a good gift for each other when visiting relatives and friends. With the improvement of people's living standards, there are endless mooncakes to eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival every year, and there are also many kinds of mooncakes on the market. The shelf life of different mooncakes is also different. The longest one can be up to sixty days, and the shortest one is only ten days. The shelf life of packaged mooncakes is slightly longer because a little preservatives are added to them. Nowadays, many people prefer mooncakes that are freshly processed by cake shops. This kind of mooncake does not contain preservatives, so the storage time will be relatively short, and if stored improperly, it will easily deteriorate. Today I will talk to you about some tips for preserving mooncakes.
If the mooncakes are individually packaged, they can be stored in a cool and ventilated place. However, many people now make mooncakes by themselves or process them outside. Generally, such mooncakes are not packaged independently, so Many people will store it directly in the refrigerator, but this is actually wrong. If stored directly in the refrigerator, the oil and sugar on the surface of the mooncakes will deteriorate very easily, because the humidity inside the refrigerator is relatively high, and they will deteriorate within a few days of being stored in the refrigerator.
We can wrap the mooncakes individually with plastic wrap, then put them in a plastic bag, seal them and put them in the refrigerator. If possible, you can put a desiccant inside the fresh-keeping bag. Some people may say that desiccant is not available. In fact, desiccant is very easy to obtain nowadays. Sometimes the bagged food we buy in the supermarket usually contains desiccant. We can put the desiccant away after eating. Put it in the mooncake bag, so it will last longer. Use this method to store mooncakes for twenty days. If you want to store them for longer, you can put the mooncakes in the freezer and freeze them. In this way, there will be no problem in storing them until the Chinese New Year.
Finally, I would like to remind everyone that snowskin mooncakes cannot be stored in the refrigerator because they are different from other mooncakes. They are frozen themselves, so we have to store them in the freezer. , just take it out when you are ready to eat.
