Brilio.net - Strawberries have various health benefits that are important for the human body. Based on information from webmd.com, the fiber content in strawberries can help control cholesterol levels. This fruit is also rich in vitamin C and folic acid which are beneficial for heart health.
Strawberry processing can be done in various forms of food such as cakes, jams, drinks, and ice cream. Strawberries are also delicious when consumed fresh without processing. The public's love for this fruit encourages many people to buy strawberries in large quantities as supplies at home.
Strawberry storage requires special methods to maintain its quality. The thin and soft skin of strawberries makes them susceptible to damage and bacterial contamination. Improper storage can cause strawberries to wilt and rot, making them unusable.
Some people choose to store strawberries in the freezer to extend their shelf life. This method is effective for preservation but changes the texture of the fruit to become soft due to the increase in water content. The appearance of strawberries also changes to become shriveled and less attractive.
An alternative solution is offered by the YouTube channel @widiariraka3035 to store strawberries. This method does not use a freezer but is still able to keep strawberries fresh for a long time.
The first step is to wash the strawberries until they are clean from dust and dirt, then dry them thoroughly on a multi-purpose tissue placed on a flat surface.

"Place the strawberries on tissue, line them up, don't stack them, don't throw away the top leaf petals," he said, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube @widiariraka3035 on Tuesday (29/10).
Cover and wrap the strawberries using the tissue. Make sure there are no open parts. In her video, this woman even uses double tissue to wrap her strawberry stock.

Move the tissue pack onto a plate. Then put the plate in the chiller section of the refrigerator only.
"Oh yeah, I put it on the second shelf under the freezer," he said.

When you are going to consume or process it, you just take it from the refrigerator and open the tissue wrapper. Don't worry, the texture and taste of the strawberry will not change even if stored for days. Like this strawberry from YouTube @widiariraka3035 which is still fresh even though it has been stored for 2 days in the refrigerator.
