The Daily Tightwad Tutor– Lesson #6: No Moldy Berries

English: Alaska wild berries from the Innoko N... — Vinegar keeps berries mold-free. (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

Wash berries (strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, etc.) in a large bowl with one part white vinegar to ten parts water. Gently mix berries in this vinegar/water wash and immediately drain and dab with paper towel to dry. The vinegar kills any spores so berries will last one to two weeks in the fridge.
