The shelf life of dried red dates is less than one year. If they are kept in the refrigerator, the shelf life can be extended by two to three months. The preservation method is to pack it in plastic bags and put it in the frozen layer of the refrigerator, which is generally not moldy. Jujube is afraid of wind, high temperature and humidity. It is easy to dry and shrink after being exposed to the wind, and the skin color changes from red to black. High temperature and high humidity are easy to produce pulp and mildew.

During the shelf life of dried red dates, always pay attention to whether there is deterioration. If the stem end of jujube is perforated or has brown or dark brown powder, it means that jujube has been eaten by insects. If you open the jujube, you can see insect excrement between the meat cores. Jujube is most afraid of high temperature and humidity, and it is easy to produce pulp, worms and mildew. Therefore, dried dates must be stored in a cool and dry place. No matter whether the jujube is soft or hard, as long as the jujube is not washed, it should be placed in a cool, dry and ventilated place, and the temperature should be controlled at 1 degree to1degree.
