Mistake 1: Storing Them in the Pantry
Contrary to popular belief, nuts should be stored in the fridge or freezer. Why? Because nuts contain a high amount of unsaturated fat, a delicate type of oil which makes them highly prone to going rancid. Spoilage is accelerated even more by light, oxygen, and—you guessed it—heat. Storing nuts (and seeds) in the fridge or freezer limits their exposure to all three and will result in your nuts tasting less bitter and more flavourful for a longer time.
Mistake 2: Paying Too Much Attention to the Best Before Dates:
Best Before dates are problematic for many reasons, primarily because they’re merely suggestions or guesses, rather than hard-and-fast deadlines for edibility. The shelf life of nuts depends on three key factors: storage conditions, shelled or unshelled, and whether or not the package is opened.
A good rule of thumb is to think of nuts as produce rather than a packaged good. Just as you would with fresh spinach or a ripe tomato, give them a sniff before you eat them. As nuts age, the rancidity will give them a paint-like smell. If you get any harsh or bitter aromas, toss them-otherwise, they’re probably still fair game. To further extend shelf life, you can add rosemary extract. You, too, can add this natural ingredient to help preserve your nuts.
