Store Potatoes And Apples Together
During the ripening process, apples produce ethylene gas, which is a colorless and flavorless by-product. It’s important to remember which fruits and veggies you’re keeping together since they may alter each other while rotting. Storing apples and potatoes in the same area can help them stay fresher longer.
If you want to prevent your potatoes from sprouting prematurely, keep these items side by side in a dark place. The ethylene gas that an apple releases aids in this process by preventing early potato growth.
