How to Store Dried Apricots, Walnuts and Almonds in Pakistan

Frequently asked questions

Should dry fruits be refrigerated?

For longer storage in warm weather, refrigeration is often useful. Seal nuts and dried fruit separately so they do not absorb moisture or food odours.

How can you tell dry fruits have spoiled?

Discard products with visible mould, an unusual sour or rancid smell, insect activity or an unexpectedly bitter taste. Never taste food to test suspected mould.

Can dried apricots and walnuts share one jar?

Separate containers are preferable because different foods have different moisture and aroma characteristics.

Can dry fruits be frozen?

Many nuts and dried fruits can be frozen in freezer-safe airtight packaging. Allow sealed packages to reach room temperature before opening to avoid condensation.
