How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining strawberries fresh, store them unwashed in their original container in the refrigerator. Avoid washing them until just before you plan to use them, as excess moisture can accelerate spoilage. Check the berries periodically and remove any that show signs of mold or damage to prevent it from spreading to the others.
