What ends it. It is fresh produce. It starts to wilt, soften and rot from the day it was picked, and the fridge only slows that down. How to make it last longer
Storage
Cool, dry and airy, not the fridge: FoodKeeper gives a whole bulb a month in the cupboard and less in the fridge. A clove is about 3 g. Never keep it in oil.
