Berries are perishable products, and in summertime of year growth and reproduction of bacteria actively progresses. Not to get poisoned, using fruits, it is necessary to follow some rules. For example, if you cannot eat that amount of berries which is available for you, you need to take care of storage conditions.
Let's say you want to keep raspberry or strawberry. In this case lay out berries in plate one layer, from above cover with paper towel or normal napkin and put in the fridge. It is not necessary to spread fruits in glasswares, also you should not close densely capacity cover as you intensify reproduction of bacteria, and it means that berry after such conditions can be thrown out. If you want to eat berries during the day, and in the house is rather cool, can leave them in the dark place, previously having covered with napkin.
If you wish to keep raspberry and strawberry for longer term, resort to freezing. Before it they do not need to be processed water, otherwise because of the emitted juice they will turn into one big lump. Spread paper towel on tray or pallet, from above one layer you vysypit berries. Put them for one or one and a half hours in the freezing chamber. After they harden, to their vysypita in plastic bag and place in the cell again.
Blueberry, stone bramble, bilberry, currant can be placed in the fridge in deep capacity, but at the same time not to close them cover (enough also to cover with paper towel). If you want to freeze berries, previously wash out them under flowing cold water. After processing carefully dry up fruits, place them in plastic bag and put in the freezing chamber. Notice that the less air is in the closed package, the better. The guelder-rose can be stored both clusters, and separate berries. If you do not want to freeze fruits, connect them in bunches and suspend in the dark and cool place, for example, on the attic. Surely you store berries in packed form, otherwise they will absorb in themselves all foreign smells. If berries have thin cover, before storage do not wash them. They as if sponge absorb water, and subsequently turn into kashitseobrazny weight.
