Storage Temperature
A favorite of chefs! Ideal for adding color and great flavor to salads, slaw, stews, soups, casseroles and, of course, vegetable medleys. Steaming is best to preserve color, nutrition and fresh flavor. Simply add a splotch of butter for a pretty side dish. Make a colorful carrot cake! Slice for appetizer and hors d'oeuvre trays. Cut into strips as a healthy garnish for most anything. To preserve color, serve whole and do not peel. Simply scrub with a vegetable brush under cold running water. To store, refrigerate in a plastic bag or keep in a cool dry area up to two weeks to ensure quality and flavor.
