    Conservation

    Store the fruit in the refrigerator, or in a cool place, for a week at most. To avoid them moulding, place them in a plastic bag with holes.
    In order to make them ripen, put them in a paper bag and leave them at room temperature for two, maximum three, days. Paper, unlike plastic, is able to maintain the appropriate moisture content for them to ripen.
