Store potatoes in a cool, dark, and dry place, like a pantry or cellar, to prevent sprouting and greening. Avoid storing them in the refrigerator, as this can cause the starch to convert to sugar, affecting the taste and texture. Keep potatoes away from onions and apples, as these release gases that can cause potatoes to spoil faster. Properly stored potatoes can last for several weeks or even months.
