How do I store a large quantity of cherries?

leave a little out (what you'd eat in a day) and put the rest in the fridge.

It is very important to store cherries in the coldest part of your

refrigerator, usually near the back. The cold storage of

cherries will help protect the texture and flavor from the effects

of warm summer temperatures. Cherries can decay more in

one hour at room temperature than they can in twenty-four

hours at 32°F. The rule of thumb with cherries, as with berries,

is not to wash the fruit until you ready to use it. This will help

to preserve the cherries.

If you don't plan to use ripe cherries within six days it is best

to freeze them. To freeze cherries, wash and drain them dry,

then spread them evenly over a cookie sheet or flat tray and

freeze them. When frozen solid, transfer the cherries to a

plastic bag. They'll keep up to a year this way.

fruit tastes better at room temperature, but they will keep longer refrigerated or frozen.

small ziplocks are good. ifone does go, it will spread fast.

i think putting in a fridge is better put the cherries in plastic ziplocks

i put ours in the fridge. it's refreshing on a hot day to have a cold piece(s) of fruit
