I finished the last of the stored jujubes yesterday. They were Sugar Canes that were picked on 10/25 and stored in a gallon zip lock bag in the fridge for ~1.5 months. They were still OK, but significantly worse than when freshly picked. The off-flavor that Sugar Cane had this year was much worse after storage. They also lost a lot of the crispness, though they still had some firmness left.
This pic is from a couple weeks ago, but still represents the state of the jujubes yesterday. They didn’t seem to change that much from 0.5 to 1.5 months.
Anyone have a good way to maintain jujubes at closer to “fresh-picked” status? I would have expected that they would store better (similar to apples), given how they don’t easily spoil and how firm/crunchy they can be when picked.
