We put some in the fridge now - we find they keep for up to a week if they are well wrapped in paper or a plastic bag that doesn’t let any light in. The skins darken but the inside is fine. I ate one that had been in the fridge for a week for lunch today.Helen V.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07989670682260643429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2762107274389650601.post-4798163287244454542017-11-13T16:12:32.273-05:002017-11-13T16:12:32.273-05:00Normally by the end of our week, they are still OK...Normally by the end of our week, they are still OK although a tad ripe for me.

Only green. This dish sounds interesting, though.
