Welcome back to another tip Tuesday. I feel like sharing small cooking tips helps those of us who want to become better in the kitchen. This tip is related to food storage. Moisture and bacteria cause decay.If you want to have your food last you need to avoid moisture and bacteria. They cause rot avoiding them means avoiding your produce turning bad. One way to do this with fresh produce is to use paper towels to catch some of the extra moisture and then replace them as they dampen over time. I use this when I have chopped vegetables ahead of time, like lettuce which allows it to stay crisp rather than get soggy and start to go bad. In a bag of spinach even one leaf that is damp and soggy can easily ruin the entire bag, I typically am quite thorough in getting rid of those leaves to ensure my greens last longer.
