Kitchen Hint of the Day!

Grapes will stay fresh only for three to five days, even if refrigerated. They keep best in a plastic bag in the coldest part of the refrigerator, but they must be washed very well before eating. If you do wash them before storing, make sure to dry them thoroughly, as they'll absorb water. Grapes can be eaten frozen (they're especially tasty treats), and frozen grapes can be used in cooking; however, they become mushy when they're thawed because of high water content. They'll keep in the freezer for about 1 year.
