Handling protocols

  • Remove torn, moldy, badly discoloured or insect-damaged leaves.
  • Wash both sides thoroughly under clean running water before food comes into contact with the leaf.
  • Trim the tough base where necessary and briefly soften stiff leaves with clean hot water or gentle heat before wrapping.

Storage tips

  • For same-day use, keep the leaves shaded, cool and protected from drying.
  • For later use, refrigerate in a clean perforated or loosely closed food-safe bag without leaving the leaves soaking wet.
  • For best flexibility and quality, use within about 2–3 days.
  • Discard leaves that become extensively slimy, moldy or rotten-smelling.
