Question 2: How to store whole lemons for a long time? Whole lemons can be stored for about a month at room temperature.
If lemons are stored for a period of time under conditions where the oxygen concentration is lower than 3% and the carbon dioxide concentration is higher than 10%, it will have a negative impact on the flavor. More than 10% carbon dioxide can increase the decay of lemons and reduce the sourness. Oxygen below 5% can cause lemons to taste bad.

3. All-purpose preservative liquid preservation method. American researchers recently invented an all-purpose preservative liquid for fruit preservation and obtained a U.S. patent. According to reports, this fully functional preservative solution is made by adjusting the pH value of 3% citric acid or 75%--80% concentration of food-grade orthophosphoric acid to below 3.5, and adding 30%--40% sucrose. It is formulated with less than 0.3% sodium benzoate or ascorbic acid and 0.03% calcium hydrogen phosphate. The use of this preservative liquid can not only prevent the fruit from fading and inhibit bacterial growth, but also prevent the fruit from shrinking and cracking, keep the texture of the pulp unchanged, increase the sugar content and keep the flavor as new.

Question 10: How to preserve fruits for a long time? The fruits we buy from the market are still living entities. They will engage in "respiration" and consume and decompose nutrients to generate energy and maintain vitality. The fruits will also undergo "evapotranspiration" to gradually escape the water from the surface of the peel. In addition, because fruits are sweet and juicy, they are easily attacked by microorganisms, leading to mold and rot. It’s also worth mentioning that many fruits produce a gas called “ethylene” when they ripen, which accelerates the ripening and aging of fruits. The above reasons will affect the storage quality of fruits.
Fruit Storage Tips
After buying the fruit, it is easiest to put it in the refrigerator if you are not going to eat it yet.
But there are some tips that may help a lot if you pay more attention to them!
． Do not wash refrigerated fruits first. Pack them in plastic bags or paper bags before placing them in the refrigerator. This can prevent water from evaporating and causing the peel to shrink or soften. It is best to punch several small holes in the plastic bag to improve ventilation to prevent moisture from accumulating and promoting the growth of germs and microorganisms.
． Each type of fruit has its most suitable storage temperature and effective shelf life (details are listed in the table on the next page). Generally, the temperature of the refrigerator compartment is about 3-6°C. If the suitable storage temperature of the fruit is lower than the temperature of the refrigerator, the storage period will be longer. It will shorten accordingly; and the longer the fruit is stored, the nutrition and flavor will gradually decrease. Therefore, we recommend that the fruits you buy back should be eaten within a week.
． The optimal storage temperature of some fruits (such as bananas, pineapples, mangos, papayas, lemons, etc.) is higher than the refrigerator temperature. In fact, these fruits only need to be stored in a cool place indoors. They should not be kept in the refrigerator for a long time, otherwise the peels will easily Lesions such as spots or browning and blackening affect the food quality.
． Apples, sugar apples, pears, bananas, papayas or rotten fruits are prone to produce ethylene. When storing other fruits, try not to store them together with the above types, so as not to accelerate the ripening and aging of the fruits and make them intolerable to storage.
