Are your apples rotting quickly? Introduced? Do you want it to be firm for at least a week or more? Most people store apples in the wrong way.
Apples are one of the most common fruits, their ripening does not stop even after picking, and they spoil quickly if stored improperly.
There are some simple tips to follow if you want them to stay fresh for longer.
The smaller the apple and the thicker the skin, the longer the apple will generally last.
Besides, they are sour varieties apples last longer than sweet ones.
Even one "bad" apple spoils another healthy one. If the apple has even a small spot or dent, the ethylene produced during ripening is released faster, and then everything around it rots faster. Therefore, it is important to pay attention to the appearance of the apples and when you notice that one is starting to rot, take it out and use it.
Also, apples can spoil prematurely if placed near other fruit. This accumulates the aforementioned ethylene, which accelerates spoilage, so it would be best if they were kept away from, say, peaches, grapes or bananas.
To prevent premature spoilage of apples, store at a lower temperature, if you don't plan to use them within a few days.
Avoid having them on the table or kitchen counter, the drawer of your refrigerator is ideal for this, as the apples will last there for about three to four weeks.
But there is also trick to store them in the refrigerator, which will extend their shelf life even more. Put the apples in a plastic bag with a zipper or a plastic bowl with a lid, and place a piece of paper towel in the bag or at the bottom of the container, which will collect excess moisture and slow down the premature rotting of the fruit.
