We used to joke about the sniff test when I was growing up. You know what I'm talking about...when you really aren't sure if the food from your fridge is still good. Well, as the fridge in our house becomes more and more full of fresh ingredients I find myself performing the sniff test quite a bit. Fresh food usually doesn't come with an expiration date. Plus, I'm new to cooking...so I really don't know how long food can last. And I'm also new to gauging how much food can yield. For example, who knew a spaghetti squash could make so much food! So...how long can I milk that thing?
I found the perfect resource: www.stilltasty.com
You can enter thousands of foods into the search engine and it will tell you how long it remains fresh. It also offers great tips on how to keep your food the freshest. I'm book-marking this baby.
