1. Use A Basket

Remove any plastic packaging from the radish and pop them in a basket. You can leave them out for a bit, but for longer freshness, stash the basket in your fridge.

2. Don't Store Radishes With Other Veggies

Some veggies give off ethylene gas, which can make radishes go bad faster. Keep your radishes separate from other produce to extend their shelf life.

3. Leave The Leaves On

Surprisingly, the leaves can help keep radishes fresher for longer. Don't chop them off! Just trim any yellow leaves and leave the rest on until you're ready to eat.

5. Don't Pre-Cut Radishes

Radishes don't like being chopped and stored. Once they're sliced, they spoil way faster, so it's best to cut them just before you're ready to eat.
