Keep Dragon Fruit Fresh Longer: My Storage Hacks

Don’t peel or cut your dragon fruit before storing it. Leaving it whole helps it last way longer—straight from the store to your counter or fridge. If you plan to eat it soon, just keep it on the counter for 2-3 days. It’ll stay fresh and look pretty, but don’t cut into it until you’re ready to eat. Want it to last up to two weeks? Pop it in the fridge, but make sure it’s in a sealed bag or container. Dragon fruit can pick up flavors from other foods, so sealing is key. Already sliced it? Store the pieces in an airtight container in the fridge. Squeeze a little lemon juice on top to keep it fresher for a couple more days. For long-term storage, cube and freeze it. Lay the pieces out on a baking sheet first so they don’t stick together, then transfer to a sealed bag. Frozen dragon fruit is perfect for smoothies, but don’t expect it to stay firm after thawing. #DragonFruit #FruitStorage #HealthyLiving #Food #Cooking
