Storing Sauces

Sauces have a tendency to spoil within 5 days if not stored properly. One way to safely consume older sauce is to heat it until hot, which will kill any bacteria. When storing sauces like bechamel, it is best to only make the amount needed and keep it in a small, airtight container in the refrigerator where it will last longer than if exposed to air. Proper storage of sauces is important for using leftovers and avoiding food waste.

Sauces have tendency to turn bad within five days of span if not stored properly

One of the wonderful way of consuming long stored sauce could be defrosting the sauce, keeping it at room
temperature, and then letting it heat on pan or microwaving it. Heating the sauce will prevent any bacteria
getting into your guts.

STORING SAUCES

bechamel sauce

Milk or cream based sauces like béchamel are highly perishable. As such, make it a habit to prepare only
the required amount per recipe.

Store in a small jar or bowl covered with plastic in the refrigerator or even in a heavy-gauge zip-top bag. A
smaller container means less exposure to air and less spoilage. Gently reheat sauces to be served warm
over low heat.

A food storage container is used to hold food at room temperature, in the refrigerator, or in the freezer.
There are several options available for storing food in any of these manners. Before selecting the type of
container to use, several factors must be taken into consideration. Consider the type of storage (room
temperature, refrigerated, or frozen), the food being stored, length of storage, and storage space. The
container can be a plastic bag, plastic container, or glass container.

The stock should never be put in the refrigerator while it is hot. The large volume of hot liquid can raise the
internal temperature of the refrigerator to the point that the stock will cool sufficiently within two hours and
may warm everything else in the refrigerator. A good way to cool the stock is to place the hot stock pot in a
sink full of cold water and ice cubes until it is lukewarm but it should not exceed one hour. After leaving it
uncovered for the first half hour and stirring occasionally to cool, it should be covered with an upside down
plate to prevent evaporation which would cause the stock to become too concentrated. Refrigerated stock
cools better in shallow pans. If covered, stock lasts up to five days but it is best if used in two days.

Stocks, sauces and soups are stored properly to maintain optimum freshness and quality. 2.Stocks, sauces
and soups are reconstituted to appropriate standards of consistency
