Storage & tools

  • Store in a cool, dry pantry (under 21 °C / 70 °F) away from direct sunlight.
  • Use airtight containers to keep humidity out — dry ingredients gain 1–2 % mass in humid air.
  • Rotate stock: first in, first out, even when the product looks unchanged.
  • Check best-by dates; potency can fade before the product looks old.

Refrigerate opened cans covered; freeze dollops to avoid waste.
