In reply to MaggieS. Yeah, light and warmth are bad for potatoes. Also, don't store them near onions! Causes them to go bad quicker.

Nah, man, BBQKing, as long as it’s frozen, you’re golden. Too many rules make cooking a chore, ya know?

Great tips here! I’ve got gadgets that help with some of this, but understanding the why behind it really helps make the most of them.

Never thought about the wrong way to store bread. Been shoving it in the fridge. Guess I’ll try keeping it out now, might last longer eh?

Interesting read on flours and sugars. Makes me wonder how long I’ve been inadvertently shortening their shelf life.

Does anyone have a foolproof way to keep basil fresh? I try, but it always wilts so quickly, even when I follow tips like these.

In reply to MaggieS. i read somewhere that light makes them sprout faster so maybe that's what they getting at?

All this fuss about storing food right seems overblown. I just keep everything in the fridge or the cupboard and it’s been fine.

Honestly, never knew onions had a special way to be stored. Been throwing them in the pantry like no tomorrow. Might explain why they sprout so fast. thanks Paul Clayton for the heads up.

Hey Paul Clayton, just wondering, for potatoes ya said we’re storing them wrong? Could you elaborate? I always thought a cool, dark place was good enough. What’s the ideal way then?
