How to store fruit
Store plums in the fridge immediately - they are coming to you soft and ripe!
VEGETABLE STORAGE
Store all greens in an airtight container in the fridge. Zucchini/Squash, Cabbage, Radishes, Eggplant should also be stored in the fridge. The potatoes can be stored in a cool, dry spot for up to a week. These are fresh-eating “new” potatoes, not storage potatoes.
The Tomatoes should remain on the counter and enjoyed when fully deep red (or yellow for the cherries). Don’t refrigerate tomatoes or they will lose all their flavor.
