Leftovers can typically be kept in the fridge for 3 to 4 days. Ensure they are stored in airtight containers to maintain freshness and prevent contamination. Always check for any signs of spoilage, such as off smells, discolouration, or mould. If in doubt, it’s safer to discard the leftovers rather than risk foodborne illness. Properly handling and promptly refrigerating leftovers can help extend their shelf life and ensure they remain safe to eat.

Yes, you can freeze most leftover ingredients for later use. Freezing is a great way to preserve food and reduce waste. Make sure to store leftovers in airtight containers or freezer bags to prevent freezer burn. Label the containers with the date so you can keep track of how long they've been stored. Most leftovers can be kept frozen for 2 to 3 months. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating to maintain the best texture and flavour.

The best way to heat leftovers depends on the type of food. For most dishes, reheating in the oven or on the stovetop ensures even warming and maintains texture. Cover the food to retain moisture. For quicker reheating, the microwave is convenient, but it can sometimes lead to uneven heating and sogginess. Stir the food halfway through microwaving and cover it with a microwave-safe lid or damp paper towel to prevent drying out. Ensure the leftovers reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C) to kill any potential bacteria.

Having a well-stocked pantry can make transforming leftovers into new meals much easier. Common ingredients to keep on hand include rice, pasta, and various grains, which can be quickly combined with leftover proteins and vegetables. Canned beans, tomatoes, and broths are versatile staples. Fresh herbs, garlic, onions, and a variety of spices can enhance the flavour of your dishes. Additionally, keep sauces like soy sauce, Worcestershire, and different types of vinegar to add depth to your leftover creations. Eggs and cheese are also useful for adding protein and richness to meals.
