Trebuie spălate fructele și legumele înainte să le pui în frigider? Greșeala care le poate face să se strice mai repede

Washing fruits and vegetables right after shopping may seem practical, but experts suggest waiting until consumption. Moisture left on produce can promote spoilage and mold growth. It's best to store unwashed items in the fridge and wash them before use. Delicate fruits like berries should only be washed before eating to prevent rapid spoilage. If washing immediately, ensure thorough drying to minimize moisture. Most produce can be rinsed under running water, but soap is not recommended. Pre-washed items do not need further washing. The key is to keep produce dry if not consumed right away to extend freshness.
