Your ideal fridge temperature should range from 37 to 40\u00b0F. This way, they will stay fresh and prevent spoiling. If your fridge has a digital display, then make sure you check it frequently. If the fridge is too warm, veggies will wilt. But when it is too cold, veggies freeze.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-clean-and-dry-vegetables-before-storage\"><strong>Clean and Dry Vegetables Before Storage<\/strong><\/h3><p>Wash and dry vegetables before storing them. Dirt and water can make veggies spoil faster. Dry leafy greens with a salad spinner or paper towels. Clean, dry veggies last longer in the fridge.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-use-the-right-storage-containers-or-bags\"><strong>Use the Right Storage Containers or Bags<\/strong><\/h3><p>Pick containers or bags that let veggies breathe. Some vegetables need perforated plastic bags. Others need airtight containers. If you are unsure, look up a produce storage guide. Using the best containers for storing vegetables in the refrigerator keeps veggies crisp and tasty.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-keep-different-vegetables-separated\"><strong>Keep Different Vegetables Separated<\/strong><\/h3><p>Some vegetables give off gases that spoil others. Keep tomatoes and peppers away from leafy greens. Use different bins or bags for each type. This helps your produce last longer.<\/p><h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-label-and-rotate-older-produce-first\"><strong>Label and Rotate Older Produce First<\/strong><\/h3><p>Label containers with the date you stored the veggies.

Lettuce needs a little care to stay crisp. You should wash the leaves and dry them well. Use a salad spinner or pat them dry with paper towels. Place the lettuce in a container lined with a dry paper towel. Cover it with a lid, but don\u2019t seal it too tightly. Lettuce likes a bit of airflow. If you use a plastic bag, poke a few holes in it. Store lettuce in the high-humidity crisper drawer.
