Flour is a very valuable product and to preserve its properties for a long time, it is necessary to follow certain storage rules, because improper storage can cause it to become infested with insects.
Flour of the highest quality can be stored for up to 10 years under favorable conditions in a cool (no more than 20 degrees Celsius), well-ventilated, and dry room.

If semolina is soaked, it becomes unusable.
You can also put flour in the refrigerator on the vegetable shelf.
How to store flour:
Paper packaging in which flour is sold is not suitable for long-term storage. It should be poured into a cloth bag, a glass container, or a food container.
By the way, flour can mold over time, so sometimes it is necessary to dry it.
To do this, follow these steps:
Spread the flour in a thin layer on paper;
Leave for several hours;
Transfer to a clean container.
In addition, to avoid beetles, insects, or worms, add a couple of unpeeled garlic cloves with the flour, as its scent repels insects.
If you are also storing a large amount of flour, for example in 50-kilogram bags, put them in wooden crates and sprinkle herbs on top, such as wormwood, marigold, or thyme, to keep insects away.
