However, be aware that reheating may cause the sweet potatoes to become softer and lose their crispiness.

Question 9

How do you tell if Sweet Potato Hash is bad?

Accepted Answer

Sweet potato hash can go bad after a while, just like any dish. The distinct sign it's gone bad is a sour or off smell. Touch is another key factor - if it's slimy, it's definitely time to toss it out. And lastly, if you notice any mold or unusual colors (other than the natural orange/brown of the sweet potatoes), it's best to play it safe and dispose of it.

Question 10

When does Sweet Potato Hash expire?

Sweet Potato Hash is a delicious homemade dish that usually lasts about 3-5 days in the refrigerator. It's not a common item to be found in a packaged form, therefore, no printed date on package to consider. If you'd like to store it longer, you can freeze it where it can last up to 6 months.

Question 11

Tips for storing Sweet Potato Hash to extend shelf life

Accepted Answer

• Always let your sweet potato hash cool down to room temperature before storing. Storing hot food can lead to condensation that speeds up spoilage.

• Store in airtight containers. This prevents the hash from drying out and also avoids cross-contamination with other items in the fridge.

• If freezing, pack your sweet potato hash in freezer-safe bags or containers. Make sure to press out as much air as possible before sealing. This will prevent freezer burn.

• Reheat only what you will consume at a time, to prevent multiple warm-cool cycles which can affect the quality of the food and make it spoil faster.
