Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Garlic Shrimp expire?
Unopened, cooked garlic shrimp should be eaten within 2 days if stored in the refrigerator. Once opened or if homemade, it's best to eat within 24 hours. Beyond this timeframe, the shrimp raises the risk of foodborne illnesses. When it comes to the freezer, garlic shrimp can be frozen and will last about 2-3 months whilst maintaining optimum quality.
How do you tell if Garlic Shrimp is bad?
Shrimp has a naturally mild odor, so if it starts to smell strongly fishy or unpleasant, then it's likely spoiled. Also, if you notice any changes in color to grey or black, it's time to let it go. Check for a slimy texture. If it's slimy after washing, it's gone bad.
Tips for storing Garlic Shrimp to extend shelf life
• Keep garlic shrimp in an airtight container or sealed plastic bag to prevent cross-contamination. • Avoid placing garlic shrimp at room temperature for long, refrigerate it as soon as possible. • If you plan to freeze it, do so as soon as you can after cooking to maintain flavor. • When reheating, ensure it's heated thoroughly all the way through to kill any bacteria. • Always remember the primary rule of food storage: when in doubt, throw it out!
