Mustard sprouts are best used fresh. To store them, gently rinse them in cool water and pat them dry with a paper towel. Wrap them loosely in a paper towel and place them in a plastic bag or container in the refrigerator. This helps absorb excess moisture and keeps them fresh for up to a week. Avoid storing them at room temperature, as they will wilt quickly. For longer storage, consider freezing them, although this may affect their texture.
