Safe Storage & Reheating Tips for Leftovers
- Cool cooked leftovers within 2 hours, then seal in your glass containers and refrigerate promptly.
- Most refrigerated leftovers stay fresh for 3–4 days. For longer preservation, freeze in suitable borosilicate glass vessels.
- Always loosen or remove lids before microwaving leftovers to release steam pressure.
- When reheating, ensure food reaches a safe internal temperature. Stir halfway through for even heating.
- Do not reheat leftovers more than once to maintain food safety.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze leftovers directly in BoroHouse glass containers?
Yes. Our borosilicate glass containers are freezer-safe. Leave space at the top of the container for liquid expansion to avoid cracking.
Can I put frozen leftovers straight into the microwave?
Borosilicate glass handles temperature changes well, but partial thawing is recommended for more even reheating and safer results.
