Freeze those nuts for longer shelf life
Are you nuts for nuts? I am -- walnuts, pecans, almonds and peanuts in particular. Not only are they healthy, but they are tasty as well. The bad thing is that those tasty, nutritious nuts can sometimes get stale if not stored correctly.Why do nuts go bad? The healthy oil inside them is the reason. Some of the best oils for heart health are inside many nuts, but if not kept preserved, they will go bad. Answer: freeze those nuts. And no, husbands should not be laughing at that line. You know what I meant.
Still, some plastic containers (or glass, which is more preferable) make for great nut storage in the side compartments of the freezer. Make sure your contained of choice is airtight, and you'll have nuts waiting for you to enjoy long after they would have gone bad at room temperature.
