Time Stamp for Each Technique...
First Method, 3-7 days storage start at 0:44

Thank you for sharing how to keep my Strawberries fresh longer. I will try them all out cause I am tired of throwing out the strawberry away. You are a lifesaver of my fruits.
You are so welcome!
Did you try method #3? if so did it work well?
Same I love strawberries but end up throwing them out because they go bad too quick especially in the winter the only tend to last about 1 or 2 days at most
Thank you Shelly for sharing these awesome storage tips 🍓☺🍓
You are so welcome!
This video is so helpful. We have a 5 month old who loves her strawberries but its hard to make sure we have them for her since they go bad so quick
Omg your hair is so pretty 💜
Thank you for the lazy step 🙏
You're welcome.
Awesome! Thank you so much. I waste strawberries all the time. I just subscribed and sharing with my kids.
Awesome! Thank you!
Helpful video! Just tried the vinegar method. :)
Great!
Thank you so much! What kind of vinegar do you use!?
Really helpful especially since i just got 5lbs. Of strawberries delivered today
Send me some will ya...
Thank you for explaining everything as soon as you started the video. I hate videos with long intros and and irrelevant info. 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Hi, very helpful video. Ty. Question - if soaking in vinegar, are bruised ones removed or ok to add them in?
Hi do the kitchen towels make a difference an also could I use my airtight container an store my fruit outside the fridge, i did take note that my strawberry dont last in the fridge so im just trying another alternative, would that work
Very helpful. If you want a good laugh speed the video up to 2 times
Great video, very easy to follow instructions👍🏻
Can I use an airtight plastic container?
Thanks for sharing🙏🏻
Yes, an airtight container should work well.
@@frugalfamilyhome …Thanks for replying🙏🏻
Hi. Can you wash them after removing the top part like you did in the second method? Would washing after hulling ruin the strawberries flavor or anything?
Thank you, I do mine like number 3, but I add baking soda with the vinegar water. They say baking soda will clean off the poison.
Good to know, thanks for sharing that tip.
do they taste like vinegar after ?
Very much thankful to you. Should I keep them in freezer or in fridge ?
These methods are for storing the berries in the refrigerator. I also have a tutorial for freezing strawberries too.
Do we use water rinse the strawberries adter soaking w vinegar
Does it make any difference if they are at room temperature? Or straight out of the fridge?
*Specifically the vinegar method
I haven't found that it makes any difference.
Appreciate video content! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Diyhloern Phrenic Dominion (just google it)? It is a great one of a kind product for preparing you and your family for any crisis without the hard work. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my m8 after a lifetime of fighting got astronomical results with it.
Do you have any suggestions on what you can do for when you end up with half your strawberries aren't ripe? Thank you for your time♡
I've heard you can leave them at room temperature for a day or two to help them ripen or change color more. But I've never tried it maybe that would work.
@@frugalfamilyhome7:27
Thank you! It's strawberry season and I love eating fresh berries, but they stay fresh for long.
Can I ask if this is some kind of food preservation?
Hi Shelly, could you please share the reason for soaking the strawberries in vinegar?
I use the vinegar soak to help clean them well and remove any dirt or mold spores that could make the berries go bad faster. Be sure to rinse them and let them dry before storing them.
Do they have a vinegar taste?
@@sabrinavanshaar318 no i do it every time ❤
#3 layering can be used with the other 2 methods . other videos say not to seal the container lid. Yes ?
You'll want to put the lid on the container for each method. I hope that helps.
New sub thank u !
How can I store fresh garlic to keep it longer
Thanks
I have a video for making minced garlic for the freezer that could be helpful for you. Here's the link, th-cam.com/video/StRW8thOjNk/w-d-xo.html
3:51 I like the vinegar.
How does lemon 🍋 juice work?
I've never tried lemon juice before so I'm not sure if it will work the same as vinegar.
Will this work for chocolate-covered strawberries after completely dry?
For the easy method, would you just store them in multiple mason jars separate like that for all of them to last a week?
Yes, just place as many as you can into each jar. Then put the rest into another jar. I hope that helps.
I want to export fresh strawberries fruits.
How to do packaging.
For 3rd step, do we need warm water or just water to mix with the vinegar?
Just water to mix with the vinegar. I don't use warm water. I hope that helps.
Will baking soda work instead of vinegar
For the vinagar method, do you pull the bruised berries?
I cut out the bruised part if most of the berry looks ok.
Amber, I pull the bruised berries to eat first. Then proceed with the vinegar method. The berries keep better and longer that way. I hope that helps.
Very helpful video, does anyone know what type of vinegar to use? Apple cider vinegar, white distilled vinegar? :) thank you!
I use cider vinegar but white distilled would be fine too.
how long does it take to dry them out?
For the 3rd method does the vinegar clean the berries or is it just to help preserve and we need to wash them after soaking?
The vinegar will help to clean the berries and it can remove the spores that can spoil the berries.
Curious. What does the paper towel do to help preserve the berries?
It helps to absorb the moisture in the container. I hope that helps.
Hi
thnx! pls allow me a question: would apple cider vinegar do the same? (because that’s what i have at hand) 🙏🙏🙏
Yes, apple cider vinegar will work too.
shelly you are so cute--- i love watching real people
Can i keep tissue paper instead of paper towel.
Will it make a difference with taste when Soaking the berries in the vinegar?
No I just did it. It does not. Just wash it off after the soak . Taste just fine
We haven't noticed any difference in flavor at all. Just rinse off the berries after soaking.
They never absorb vinegar since they are 90 percent water s
With the water and vinegar I've seen people also add baking soda to that. Have you ever tried it? I didn't know what it was for. Thank you
I haven't added baking soda before, so I'm not sure why it would be added.
@@frugalfamilyhome ok thank you
How would you do this same process with blueberries and blackberries?
I would believe you would use the same process as with strawberries. Although with blueberries I've been able to keep them a good month if I put them in an airtight container with a paper towel. But those are home grown so it might be different with store bought.
@@frugalfamilyhome oh wow! I might give it a try like that. How about raspberries? It seems like they always get mushy quite quickly
I don't know where you live, but it's almost impossible to find berries that fresh anymore where I live. The tip about vinegar would probably be helpful if we could find better quality berries to start with.
From the kitchen countertops, I'd guess California? My parents lived in Northern Cal and had the BEST strawberries and same countertops :-) But I could be wrong, lol.
Your probably not going to see this but if you do, does the strawberry’s for the vinegar method taste different or is there no difference
Landon, it doesn't taste any differently.
Okay thanks
Can store for 3 mont?
Will the vinegar change the taste of the berries?
No it doesn't
What vinegar did u use?
I just use plain white vinegar as a soak. Or if I don't have plain white vinegar, I've used apple cider vinegar in the past too.
Will liquor or wine work?
Can someone explain how the paper towel doesn't dry them out?
Can we use the vinegar and water mix for raspberries and blueberries also? Will they keep longer?
I think it would work well for blueberries but I think the raspberries wouldn't work well because they are more fragile. I hope that helps.
thank you but for the 2 wk method do the strawberries taste like vinegar?
Not at all, we use that method the most often. I hope that helps.
Has anyone tried option 2?
Can I use tissue if I don’t have paper towels?
Toilet paper? Haha
I would use a clean cotton cloth I think tissue might just fall apart.
Cold strawberries are gross though, can that container stay out instead?
For the 3rd method , where to place the strawberry in the refrigerator? Freezer or chiller??
Place them in the refrigerator.
Can you wash them before when you do the second method
It's better to not wash them first with the second method. I hope that helped.
@@frugalfamilyhome Yes I think so. I did the second method as you said. And the strawberries stayed good till we finished them , first time ever.
Thanks
Could I use rice vinegar
I'm sure that would work too. Any vinegar should work fine.
Frugal Family Home Thank you. I tried it and my strawberry’s are still good! No sight of aging to come!
Does this work for all berries ?
I've used this method for hearty berries like strawberries and blueberries. More fragile berries like raspberries will fall apart.
White vinegar or apple cider vinegar?
Either kind of vinegar will work, Cynthia.
Are the strawberries going to smell or taste like vinegar?
No they won't taste like vinegar or smell like it either.
Regular vinegar? Or apple cider
Either one will work, use what you have on hand.
What do you do to the bruised strawberries? I still eat them they are good either way...
Yes, you are right you can eat them either way. We eat the bruised ones first.
