Select the Right Jars: Opt for glass jars with airtight lids. Ensure they’re clean and completely dry before use.
Prepare Your Fruits: Wash and thoroughly dry your fruits. For small fruits like berries, a vinegar rinse (1 part vinegar to 3 parts water) can help remove bacteria and mold spores.
Prepare Larger Fruits: If you’re storing bigger fruits like apples or pears, slice them up. A little lemon juice can prevent them from browning.
Packing the Fruits: Place your fruits gently into the jars, avoiding overpacking. Leave a bit of space at the top to ensure a proper airtight seal.
Seal and Refrigerate: Tightly seal the jars and store them in your fridge. This method is particularly effective for berries, grapes, cherries, and sliced fruits.
