Storing Fresh Apples For Peak Flavor And Longevity
Orchard pros advise storing picked apples at 32 degrees to preserve taste. Use ventilated containers or cardboard boxes, and keep some apples in a bag with other fruits to speed ripening. Avoid bruised fruit and wash with mild soap and water, brushing off pesticides. Limit picking to needed amounts and reuse fresh fruit promptly.
