Cooking Tips
Storage of homemade sauces
• Pour sweet and sour sauce into an ice cube mold and place it in the freezer. Once
solidified, the sauce cubes can then be sealed in a food storage bag. However,
the sauce cubes must be reheated thoroughly before use.
• If the sauce contains perishable ingredients, such as egg, cream or dairy products,
it must be consumed as soon as possible even being stored in the refrigerator.
