How people cook with it
Red seedless grapes are incredibly versatile in the kitchen. They can be enjoyed fresh or incorporated into a variety of dishes.
- Snack on them straight from the bag.
- Add to fruit salads.
- Serve with cheese and crackers.
- Use in savory dishes.
When preparing grapes, start by rinsing them thoroughly under cool running water. Gently pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel. For snacking, simply remove them from the stem. They can be added whole to fruit salads or used as a garnish for desserts and cheese boards. In cooking, grapes can be roasted alongside meats or vegetables, or simmered into sauces to add a touch of sweetness and acidity. Their skins are thin and edible, so there's no need to peel them.

How to keep the rest
To keep the remaining grapes fresh, store them unwashed in their original packaging or a breathable container in the refrigerator. Avoid washing them until just before you are ready to eat or use them, as excess moisture can encourage spoilage. They are best consumed within a week of purchase for optimal flavor and texture.
