How to store garlic so it doesn't rot and lasts a long time.
You can store garlic in the right way to prevent rotting and extend its life. Here are several ways to store garlic so it doesn't rot and lasts a long time:
1. Store in a cool and dry place.
Store garlic in a cool, dry place, such as a storage room or kitchen cupboard that is not too humid.
2. Keep away from sunlight.
Avoid storing garlic in a place exposed to direct sunlight, because this can speed up the rotting process.
3. Don't store it in the refrigerator.
Although cold temperatures help prevent spoilage, garlic should not be stored in the refrigerator. Cold temperatures and high humidity in the refrigerator can promote the growth of frost, which can speed up the spoilage of garlic.
4. Store in an open container.
If possible, store garlic in an open or perforated container to increase air circulation around it.
5. Avoid storing it with fruit.
Garlic can absorb moisture and aromas from other fruits and vegetables, which can speed up spoilage. It's best to store garlic separately from other fruit and vegetables.
By following these steps, you can help extend the shelf life of your garlic and prevent it from spoiling.
