Are You Guilty of These Common Food Storage Mistakes?
Keep Your Sauce Hot and Spicy
Hot sauce is typically made from chili peppers, vinegar, salt, and sometimes garlic and spices. Placing hot sauce in the refrigerator helps preserve its flavor and color, preventing it from losing its kick.
However, the vinegar and salt act as natural preservatives, so hot sauce can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dark place. If kept in the pantry, it should be tightly sealed to maintain its zing. Refrigeration can extend its shelf life, but either way, it remains a fiery delight for your dishes.
