Storage Tips
To keep romanesco fresh, store it in a perforated plastic bag in the refrigerator's crisper drawer. This helps maintain humidity and prevents it from drying out. It is best used within 3-5 days for optimal flavor and texture. Avoid washing it before storing, as excess moisture can promote spoilage; wash only when ready to use. Blanching and freezing are also options for longer storage.
