A FEW USEFUL DETAILS

Thickness changes after chilling; this is not a shelf-stable bottled product.

Serving & storage

Refrigerate promptly in small clean covered heat-safe containers at 4°C/40°F or below; do not leave a batch on the counter to cool fully. Use within 3 days under our conservative editorial planning policy, derived from general cooked-leftover guidance rather than a validated shelf life for this formulation. Do not can or store at room temperature. For these prepared bases, discard a batch left out more than 2 hours, or 1 hour above 32°C/90°F; this is our conservative handling policy for the prepared mixture, not a claim about dry sugar or dry spices.
