How to store yacon? Is there any method to store it for a long time?

1. How to save

1. Soak in clean water: If you don’t want to eat the peeled fruits now, you can soak them in clean water at a relatively low temperature. This can prevent the skinless fruits from turning black due to oxidation. They can be preserved for most of the day, but they need to be eaten as soon as possible so that they taste better.

2. Store in a cool place: After you buy them, if you only need to store them for a short period of time and will eat them again soon, you can put them in a clean plastic bag and put them in a cool place. Be sure not to expose them to strong sunlight and pay attention to ventilation. This method can preserve them for about a week.

3. Refrigerate: If you don’t want to eat it for a short time, you can wrap it with some newspaper. Be careful to wrap it completely and be gentle when wrapping it to avoid bumping or damaging the fruit. Then store it in a refrigerator at a temperature of 2-9 degrees. If it has been cut, in order to avoid oxidation, it needs to be wrapped with plastic wrap before putting it in.

2. Is there any long-term storage method?

There is a way to preserve it for a long time. It can be stored in the refrigerator for about a month. If you want it to last longer, you can make it into dried fruits, so you won’t be limited by time.
