Produce OASIS Tip of the Day

Each day Produce Oasis has a new Tip of the Day featuring your favorite fruits, vegetables, nuts, herbs and spices.

May 7 - Strawberry Selection Tips:

Good-quality strawberries should be firm (but not rock-hard), evenly shaped and medium to large in size. Their coloring should be even and bright red.

Avoid berries that are wrinkled, soft, spotted with mold or leaking juice. Berries with more than a touch of green or white around the caps do not ripen well after they are picked.

OASIS has much more information on berries.
