Garlic should be stored in a cool, dry place with good air circulation, such as a wire basket in a pantry. Avoid storing garlic in the fridge, as the cold and moisture can cause it to sprout or become moldy.
Keep garlic bulbs whole until ready to use, as breaking them apart can shorten their shelf life. Properly stored, whole garlic bulbs can last for several months, maintaining their pungent flavor and health benefits.
10. Fresh Herbs: Treat Them Like Flowers (Or Salad) For Longer Life
To keep fresh herbs like cilantro and parsley vibrant for longer, treat them like cut flowers. Trim the ends and place them in a glass of water in the fridge, loosely covered with a plastic bag to retain moisture. Change the water every couple of days to keep them fresh.
For herbs like basil, which are sensitive to cold, store them at room temperature in a similar setup. Alternatively, you can wrap herbs in a damp paper towel and store them in a plastic bag in the fridge's crisper drawer, which mimics the humid conditions they thrive in.
