Pecan Store December 5th, 2008

From our perspective, it should be no surprise to you that we really do believe that the world’s best nuts make the best gifts. And when we say “fresh from our farm to your table,” we mean it and we want it to stay that way. So, we dug up a few tips from ilovepecans.org on how you can keep your Green Valley Pecans fresh and safely stored:

1. Shelled pecans can be kept in the fridge for up to nine months and two years in the freezer.
2. Pecans can be repeatedly thawed and refrozen for up to two years. And don’t worry about flavor or texture issues—thawing and freezing does not damage them.
3. Always keep your pecans in airtight containers when you store them in the refrigerator, but thick, sealable, plastic freezer bags are best for the frozen ones.
4. Store in-shell pecans in a cool, dry place for up to 12 months.
5. Pecans will stay good for up to two months after thawing or removing from the refrigerator.

Pretty simple! This way you can always have fresh, crunchy, delicious pecans on hand when you need them the most.
