Keeping Strawberries fresh for a week
As a single man I cannot consume a big box of strawberries quickly. This is what saves them. I wash them and slice off the stems and then cut them into small pieces. Put the berries into a plastic bowl and sweeten them with any sweetener like Sweet 'n Low, Splenda or sugar. This helps to preserve them and sweeten of course. Them fill the bowl with water to cover the berries. After a few days in the refrigerator the water will become a sweet liquid. They'll stay fresh for up to 2 weeks usually.
