    Proper storage of pasta is important to prevent bacterial growth and deterioration. Dry pasta can be stored indefinitely in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Cooked pasta should be tossed with a small amount of oil, stored in an airtight container, and refrigerated for 3-5 days. Fresh pasta is best used within 2 days but can be refrigerated and tightly covered for up to 2 days to prevent drying and cracking. Frozen pasta can be stored for up to 3 months at -18°C or lower and does not require thawing before cooking.

    LEARNING OUTCOME 4
    INTRODUCTION
    ■Proper storage of food is very crucial in keeping
    food safe because the manner and temperature of
    storage will affect the food‘s susceptibility to
    bacterial growth, other contaminants, and
    infestation. Storing food will not improve its quality,
    it will only delay the rate of deterioration, and thus,
    the proper period of storage should also be
    observed.
    FIFO
    ■FIFO (First In, First Out)
    the first food stored should be the first food to be
    out from the storage it is high time to make it a
    habit or put into practice. Write the expiry date,
    date received and date of storage to the food
    package and regularly check the expiration date.

    HOW TO STORE PASTA NOODLES


    HOW TO STORE PASTA NOODLES
    1. DRY PASTA
    Remove the pasta from the store packaging if the
    noodles come in a box or other non-airtight container.
    Place the noodles in a sealable plastic bag or other
    container that closes tightly. For long noodles, such as
    spaghetti, use a tall plastic storage container.
    Seal the bag or screw the lid on tightly. Store the pasta
    in a cool, dry place. Dry pasta stores indefinitely, but
    should be used within two years to prevent loss of flavor.
    Store dried egg noodles for up to six months.
    2. COOKED PASTA
    Pour the noodles into a colander. Allow as much
    moisture as possible to drain. Noodles left in standing
    water become overly soft and mushy.
    Sprinkle 1 tsp. salad oil over the noodles. Toss the
    pasta so the noodles are evenly coated in the oil.
    Salad oil prevents the pasta from sticking together.
    Place the pasta in a tight-sealed container. Store in
    the refrigerator for three to five days.
    3. FRESH PASTA
    Fresh pasta should ideally be used on the same day
    as manufactured. This is not always possible, but if it
    is used within the next two days it will give adequate
    results. After this it tends to crack through excess
    drying. It must be stored, keep it well-covered in the
    fridge, to minimize the risk of this happening. Frozen
    filled pastas will keep for up to three months if held at
    -18oC or lower.
    4. FROZEN PASTA
    does not have to be thawed before
    it is cooked. Just place the frozen
    pasta into boiling water and reheat
    it. It will need to cook a little longer
    than unfrozen pasta.
