JAKARTA - Cheese is one of the foodstuffs with a short shelf life, especially if the packaging has been opened. The damaged cheese will be moldy and not fresh.

With that, storing cheese must be right and precise, in order to last for a long time. Reported by The Sun, if the cheese is stored properly, it can survive in fresh conditions for 1 week to a month, depending on the type.

The best cheese is stored in the refrigerator, as close as possible to the bottom of the refrigerator, which is the vegetable compartment. The harder the cheese, the longer the cheese will stay fresh when stored in the refrigerator, even though the main packaging has been opened.

Semilunical cheese usually lasts for several weeks in the refrigerator. Cheeses with a soft texture usually last in just a week or less than two weeks.

While keeping the cheese in the refrigerator, citing the page The Splendid Table, a tool to wrap the cheese must be very careful. Wrap the cheese with aluminum foil or wax paper.

When wrapping it, the main thing is to make sure the cheese remains closed and humid. However, a little gap for incoming air must be made on the package, so that the cheese does not dry and crack.

Wrapping cheese with plastic is not recommended. This is because plastic can make moisture in the cheese trapped, so it only lasts for about a week.

Please note also, after you open the cheese wrapper stored in the refrigerator, the packaging must be thrown away. Then when it's finished using, the cheese must be put in a new package.
