It’s so frustrating to buy fresh berries only to find they’ve turned moldy after just a few days. Don’t despair. I’m going to teach you a simple technique to keep berries fresh for twice as long as they would if left to their own devices.

This process takes some extra time and effort on the front end, but when you have beautiful, fresh berries for several days, and even weeks, it’s worth it.
