Raw potatoes should NEVER be refrigerated, since doing so brings out all the sugars & starches. Cooked, however, may be stored in the fridge for no more than two days,making sure they are covered.
I am a chef.
Potatoes should never be kept in the fridge because the starch in them will turn to sugar. Kept in a dry, dark place at room temperature they will last between 1-2 months. When they go bad, you will be able to tell by their softness and wrinkles on the skin.
This is not only for potatoes but in many cases for all types of food. Try not to keep it in the refrigerator more than three days if you still want the freshness. To help extend the freshness in the potatoes i recommend squeezing some lemon juice. This actually works for my potato salad. Just try not to keep it in more than a week, it may still be good but the quality of the taste will change.
After purchase from the store and properly stored, fresh potatoes are good for 2-4 weeks. They should not be stored in the refrigerator.
However, potatoes may be purchased, stored and prepared in many different ways, each which can result in a different expiration date.
if kept in a sealed container or a ziplock bag you should be able to keep for upto 1 week after that throw it out
Cooked potatoes start developing an off-flavor when refrigerated. Don't plan on keeping them more than a day.
Dependending on how theyre cooked. 4 days to two weeks. a baked potato will obviosly keep longer than mashed.
24 hours is enough
Three days for cooked roast potatoes or cooked chips.
3 days
1 week
Seven days.
About 4 - 5 days.
Raw chicken can stay fresh in a fridge up to 2 days. The chicken has to stay in the fridge and then immediately cooked.
Put it in an air tight container with a lid.
Meats do not last long in the refrigerator. Only about 3 to 4 days if it is raw. Then 1 to 2 days longer if cooked and placed in an airtight container. You should always cover meats when stored in the fridge.
You can store raw potatoes that are cut in water to keep them fresh in the refrigerator.They will stay good for a few days stored this way. You should cook them as soon as possible.
Cooked steak will keep in the fridge for 3-5 days.
As a rule of thumb and in my opinion, fish should not be refrigerated for more than one day. After that, they can still be eaten safely as long as the refrigerator is in good working condition but, it will be extremely dry in the mouth and may even taste fishier if it was not cooked correctly.
Meats either raw or cooked do not stay long in the refrigerator. 5 days is the longest for cooked or raw meats.
