So make sure you check your apples thoroughly before you store them to ensure to remove all the damaged fruit, these can then be used for cooking!To make sure your apples will last longer you could wrap each item in newspaper, this is a great way to protect the rest of the fruit. If you don’t have the time to wrap in newspaper make sure that none of the apples in storage are touching each other to stop contamination.You should also be careful to separate different types of fruit and vegetables in a storage rack. If you want to store more than one kind of fruit or vegetable make use of the different drawers in a storage system and make sure to keep them all separate by giving them a drawer each.What Is The Ideal Temperature For Storing Apples?
