When to wash produce for maximum freshness and safety

  MEMPHIS, Tenn. (Youdle) – When you bring produce home, deciding whether to wash it right away or wait can affect both safety and shelf life. The simple rule: wash produce that’s going straight to the kitchen before eating, but hold off on washing items you’ll store. Moisture speeds spoilage and invites mold, so keeping berries, greens, and herbs dry in the fridge will stretch their life. For firmer produce with tougher skins — apples, potatoes, citrus — a quick rinse before storing is fine, but dry thoroughly. Before eating: rinse under cool running water and gently rub to remove dirt and residues. Don’t use soap or vinegar—water and friction do the job. For storage: keep pre-washed bagged greens sealed; wash only before serving. Dry produce completely (salad spinner or paper towels) to slow spoilage. Use a dedicated produce brush for roots like potatoes and carrots. For busy shoppers, small habits save money and time: label washed batches, store dry items in breathable co...
