1. In the box (in order of what to eat first):
Dill - Dill wilts quickly. You may store it standing upright in a glass of water for up to two days, or you can hang it to dry. Freezing dill is also an option to make it last longer.
Parsley - Place in a glass with an inch of water in the fridge. Change water often. Can also be stored in a closed container in the fridge. Lasts up to one week.
Romanesco - Will last up to one week in a closed contiiner in the fridge, but has better flavor is consumed earlier.
Celery - Store in your crisper. Lasts about one week.
Radishes - Remove the greens (store separately) so they don't draw out excess moisture from the roots. Place them in an open container in the fridge with a wet towel placed on top. Lasts up to one week.
Cabbage - Left out on a cool counter is fine up to a week, in the crisper otherwise. Peel off outer leaves before cooking.
Broccoli - Place in an open container in the fridge or wrap in a damp towel before placing in the fridge. Lasts 1-2 weeks.
Leeks - These large alliums are rather mild in flavor and simply melt to perfection when sautéed. Use in soups, stir-fries, or in place of onions in other dishes for a delicious and more subtle flavor. Save the dark green tops for making vegetable stock! Leave in an open container in the crisper wrapped in a damp cloth or in a shallow cup of water on the counter (just so the very bottom of the stem has water).
Mandarins and Oranges: Leave out on the counter until ripe. Then eat 'em!
Sweet Potatoes - Store in a cool, dark, well‐ventilated place. Never refrigerate‐‐sweet potatoes don't like the cold. Lasts up to 3 weeks if stored properly.
