Guide to storing food

Bananas give off ethylene, which speeds up the ripening process of other fruits, so store them separately.

Mushrooms should be kept in paper bags in the fridge. Plastic bags cause them to go mushy.

Tofu - Once package is opened, store the unused portion in a container of water with tight lid. Change the water daily and consumed tofu within 3 days.

Other guides - Ensure adequate space in the fridge for good in circulation. Avoid storing food in the cabinets above the stove as the heat will cause them to spoil faster. Use up older stock first before opening new one.
