Storage & Shelf Life
Storage Conditions:
- Refrigeration: To keep fresh leaves, store them in a plastic bag or airtight container in the refrigerator.
- Moisture: It's essential to ensure the leaves are a little humid before storing them to prevent them from withering, but avoid storing wet leaves as they tend to decay quickly in cold conditions.
Storage Duration: When stored properly in the refrigerator, leaves will last between 7 and 14 days.
