'Best' way to store carrots so they stay fresh and crisp for up to four weeks It's easy to just chuck carrots in the fridge after a food shop, but failing to store them properly can result in limp, slimy or even mouldy veggies.
Sarah added: "Similarly to whole carrots, keep already cut carrots submerged in a container, jar, or bag of fresh water.
Sarah Bond, a chef recipe developer and founder of Live Eat Learn, has revealed the "right way" to store carrots that keeps them crisp and fresh for up to four weeks.
Storing carrots in an airtight container filled with water helps maintain the ideal level of moisture and humidity, keeping them fresh for a longer period.
She advised: "To prevent this, store whole unpeeled, unwashed carrots in a container, large jar, or sealable bag full of fresh water.".
