Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our recipes.
How long does a fresh fruit salad last in the refrigerator?
A properly stored fruit salad typically stays fresh for 3-5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator. For best results, add softer fruits just before serving.
What are the best fruits to include in a fruit salad?
Choose a mix of firm fruits (apples, pears), berries (strawberries, blueberries), and tropical fruits (mango, pineapple) for varied nutrients and textures. Avoid over-ripe fruits that can become mushy.
How can I keep my fruit salad from browning?
Toss cut fruits with a splash of lemon or lime juice; the citric acid prevents oxidation while adding brightness to the flavor. This natural method preserves both appearance and nutritional value.
