We are all used to keeping a small supply of onions at home and using them for cooking when needed. At the same time, each of us has definitely had moments when, after looking into the onion stash, it becomes clear that the vegetable is no longer suitable for consumption.

To prevent this from happening, you need to know how to store onions properly. Thanks to a method published by the Mirror with reference to Melissa, a culinary expert and founder of Little House Living, this becomes a reality.

The expert strongly recommends against storing onions in the refrigerator. There, it will absorb a lot of excess moisture, which will accelerate the rotting process. The ideal place to store onions, according to Melissa, is a drawer or cupboard where there is not a lot of sunlight.

Also, the place to store the onions should be dry, but not too warm. This way, the onions will not start to rot and sprout. But the room should not be too cold, because then the onions will freeze and lose their properties. The expert also insists that onions should not be stored in plastic bags.
