how to store dry fruits - #24856
I am really confused about how to store dry fruits properly. Like, I bought a big stash of almonds, cashews, and some dried apricots last week because they were on sale, but now I can’t figure out how to store dry fruits so they don’t go bad. I’ve had instances before where I've left them in the pantry, and then they just seem to get all weird and lose their crunchiness, which is super frustrating. Right now, I have them in a plastic bag, but I’ve read some stuff about storage in glass jars being better? Should I keep them in the fridge or at room temperature? And what about humidity — there’s been some weird weather lately, and I’m worried that a damp day could spoil my stash. I guess I also wonder if it makes a difference if they’re salted or unsalted? Like, how do I store dry fruits for maximum freshness? Would love any tips if you guys have them!
