Storage & Preparation: Peaches, Walla Walla Sweet Onions, Cauliflower

Image by http://www.jfranklinwillis.com
Peaches can be ripened by placing in a paper bag punched with holes; store at room temperature in a spot away from sunlight. Check often for ripeness as they can go from under-ripe to overripe in a matter of twenty-four hours.
- Walla Walla Sweet Onions: If kept separate in a cool, ventilated location, sweet onions can be stored for several weeks. Handle onions with care to prevent bruising or decay.
- Cauliflower: Store unwashed in the refrigerator, with stem side down, in an open plastic bag or perforated plastic bag. This will avoid excess moisture, which causes the cauliflower to deteriorate faster. Use within 5-7 days.
