This is how they stay fresh the longest

This way, grapes stay appetizing for up to 14 days

If the weather is good, the grape season extends from August to December. That goes for white, red and blue sorts equally. Since table grapes are non-climacteric fruits, they do not ripen. As a result, they can be harvested when fully ripe and taste incomparably good when eaten fresh. Who his himself drawn If you cannot eat grapes at once, ideally store them in this way:

• Can be kept for 4-5 days in a fruit basket at room temperature
• Put the fruit unwashed in a food storage bag or a Tupperware jar
• If stored in the refrigerator at 4-5 degrees Celsius, the shelf life is extended to 14 days

The grapes lose their aroma when cooled. Therefore, take the berries out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before consumption to wash them and bring them to room temperature for carefree enjoyment.

Grapes are stored in the freezer

The shelf life is extended to up to 6 months if you use grapes freeze. Unlike many other types of fruit, grapes do not become mushy after thawing. How to do it right:

• Place the grapes in a sieve and wash them under running water
• Pat dry with a cloth or paper towel
• Spread the berries out on a baking sheet or plate so that they don't touch
• Sprinkle with a little sugar to taste
• freeze in the quick freezer for 5-6 hours

If the grapes are frozen, they are ideal for immediate use as a snack or as ice cubes in drinks. Alternatively, you can put the fruits in a freezer bag to save space in the freezer for several months. The frozen grapes are of course not suitable for small children. Because of the smooth shell, they could get stuck in the throat.
