Kitchen Hint of the Day!

This is Nuts.....


Although they may look like a non-perishable food item, nuts can go rancid quickly because of their fat content. Shelled nuts go off faster than those still in their shells, and the packages do have best before dates stamped on them. It’s a good idea to store nuts in the fridge or the freezer. Sources vary on how long nuts keep, but one rule of thumb is:

* A month at room temperature
* Up to six months in the fridge
* Up to one year in the freezer

Nuts should be kept in a non-metal, airtight container. Even a resealable freezer bag will do the trick.
