with out water


Place carrots in a plastic bag before storing in a refrigerator crisper at 32 to 45 degrees F!.
Carrots taste best when used within 2 weeks, but the nutritional value will keep for several weeks!.
Prevent bitterness in carrots by storing them away from apples and other fruits that give off volatile gases (ethylene) while ripeningWww@FoodAQ@Com

I just put the bag I got yesterday into a glass dish with water!. I think they stay "plumped" better!. also, they're in front of the refrigerator, so they're right in front of your face when you're looking for a snack! !.!.!.!.!.!.!.Unless you have children who are taking things out of the refrigerator, covered glass dishes are better to use than tupperware!. Food tastes better in glass; you can see what's in there better; and it's easier to keep clean!.!.!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I keep them in a ziploc bag without water so I'd say Tupperware without water!. I think moisture hastens the rotting!. That's why you wrap lettuce in paper towels to absorb the moisture!.

The only produce I can recall stored in water at the grocery is asparagus!. They're set in dishes with water at the base!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Fresh carrots should be stored WITHOUT water in a Fridgesmart container (visit http://www!.mytupperware!.com/cakaplan) with both vents closed!. This is the low setting!.

This allows them to last up to 2 weeks longer than being stored openly!.

No water is necessary to keep them fresh!.
