Storage & tools
- Refrigerate perishable foods within 2 hours (1 hour if above 32 °C / 90 °F).
- Keep the refrigerator at or below 4 °C (40 °F); cold chain reduces mass loss.
- Cool hot foods in shallow containers so they chill quickly without condensation.
- Use an appliance thermometer to verify fridge and freezer temperatures.
Keep dry beans sealed cool and dark; cooked beans last 4–5 days refrigerated.
