Medjool dates are best stored in an airtight container to maintain their soft texture and prevent them from drying out. At room temperature, they will stay fresh for about a month. For longer storage, refrigerate them in a sealed container for up to 6-8 months. You can also freeze Medjool dates for up to a year; wrap them tightly in plastic wrap or place them in a freezer-safe bag. Before using frozen dates, thaw them at room temperature for a few hours to restore their texture.
