Nuts are known for their benefits to the body, they contain a lot of protein, vitamins B and E, calcium, iron, magnesium and potassium. Nuts are widely used in cooking and are consumed by themselves. Amateurs buy them in large quantities and face storage problems.
Instructions
Step 1
Don't buy nuts for future use. The biggest problem with nuts is that they become rancid over time. Peeled nuts, in addition, tend to oxidize and deteriorate. Take nuts in stores exactly as much as you need for one use - this way you protect yourself from damage to the product.
Nuts contain many nutrients, so it is important to add them to your daily diet. They will help control your increased appetite. But you should not get carried away with them - you should not eat more handfuls a day, since nuts do not belong to light food.
Step 2
Store peeled nuts in a tightly closed container or container. Try to reduce air access to them. In this form, they can be stored for a couple of months in the refrigerator or a month in a dark, dry place. For this storage method, use, for example, a glass jar with a tightly closed lid, a bag that needs to be tightly wrapped, and similar packaging.
Step 3
Pack peeled nuts airtight and store at room temperature in a dark, dry place. So they hold out for several months. Place the nuts, for example, in a special plastic jar with a lid that fits snugly and completely blocks the air.
Step 4
Send the shelled nuts to the freezer. Frozen nuts retain all their useful properties and can be stored like this for up to six months.
Step 5
When shopping for shelled nuts, choose the freshest of them. To increase the shelf life of your home, buy high-quality and stale nuts. You can determine the freshness of peeled nuts as follows. The kernels must be sound and intact. Faded and shriveled nucleoli are a sure sign that they have been in the store for a long time and have already lost all their best properties. If there is an opportunity to taste the nuts, do not refuse: stale nuts are always bitter.
