Storage Tips
Store fresh drumsticks unwashed in a perforated bag or container in the refrigerator; they stay fresh for 4–5 days.
Wrap in a paper towel before refrigerating to absorb excess moisture and slow spoilage.
Avoid storing at room temperature for long periods, as they dry out quickly.
Use fresh drumsticks promptly for best flavor and nutrition.
