How I keep cucumbers fresh in the refrigerator for a month or more.
Cucumbers are one of the favorite and popular vegetables. Unfortunately, not everyone has the opportunity to have a small garden bed and pick fresh cucumbers every day.
Most people store purchased cucumbers in the refrigerator or some other cool place, simply by placing them on the shelves. But this is not a very effective way and vegetables usually quickly lose their original taste.
To preserve cucumbers for a long period, you need to seriously approach the choice of vegetables. First of all, they must have a dense skin without any damage.
It is best to buy medium-sized fruits. And in any case, do not wash the cucumbers before you are going to store them.
I usually put the cucumbers in a deep bowl and cover them with a damp tea towel. So I do it with all the greens.
You can also use a regular bag, but do not tie it.
Place a wet towel on top of the bag.
But if stored in the refrigerator, place the cucumbers in a special box, while wrapping each individual cucumber in a napkin so that they do not come into contact with each other.
In the event that one of the fruits begins to rot, the rest will remain safe and sound.
You can also use containers with water for storage, into which you need to lower the cucumbers with their tails down.
But this method requires extra effort and takes up a lot of space in the refrigerator. The point is that the water needs to be changed every day.
