How to extend the shelf life of milk: housewives share their life hack

Food spoilage is a common problem that can be easily solved by following the rules of storage.

Milk is a perishable product. However, its shelf life can be significantly increased with the help of two simple life hacks. Express writes about it.

Add a little salt

It may sound strange, but salt acts as a preservative, delaying the development of bacteria. Add a pinch of salt to the milk immediately after opening the carton, mix thoroughly, and put it back in the fridge.

Store milk in the right place

The best place for milk is in the back of the middle or upper shelves of the refrigerator. Avoid the door, as this is the warmest place and furthest away from the cooling system.

These two simple life hacks will help you keep your milk fresher for longer.

Here are some more tips:

• Buy milk with the freshest possible expiration date.
• Do not open the milk carton if you are not going to use it.
• Do not leave milk on the table at room temperature.
• Use clean utensils for pouring milk.
