INGREDIENT STORAGE Best Practices
Also see the WASTE AVOIDANCE STRATEGY with each recipe for tips on preserving ingredients for longer periods if required.
VEGGIES
broccoli – in the fridge wrapped in a plastic bag.
lemons / limes – in the fridge wrapped in a plastic bag. Can be kept at room temp if you prefer but will last longer in the fridge.
mint – in the fridge wrapped in a plastic bag.
red chillies – in the fridge wrapped in a plastic bag.
rocket (arugula) – store sealed bag in the fridge. If buying loose leaves, wash and spin dry in a salad spinner then wrap loosely in paper towel and place inside plastic bag. Push out most of the air and seal. Store in the fridge.
PROTEIN
chicken – in the fridge in the packaging it was purchased in.
eggs – I keep mine in the pantry because we eat a lot of eggs. Will last much longer in the fridge.
lamb – in the fridge in the packaging they were purchased in.
DAIRY
butter – in the fridge in the packaging it was purchased in.
cottage cheese – in the fridge in the packaging it was purchased in.
