Today I am going to go in-depth on how to wash, prep and store strawberries in the fridge so they will last weeks!

Add 2-3 tablespoons of white vinegar to the a clean sink half full of cold water.

Dump the unwashed strawberries right from their carton in the water and swish them around again to cover all the berries with the vinegar water.

Soak the strawberries in the vinegar water for at least 5 minutes. Check the berries for any soft spots or mold. Remove the bad berries from the water and either eat them right away or toss them in the compost.

Remove the strawberries from the vinegar water and begin cutting the strawberries in half.

Once cut, lay flat to dry on a clean tea towel or paper towel.

Once your strawberries are washed, cut, and dried, it is time to put them in their glass jar home for the fridge!
