Delicate Protein Preservation
Storage Science
Cool quickly and refrigerate in an airtight container immediately. Seafood degrades rapidly; consume within 24 to 48 hours maximum.
Reheating Science
DO NOT microwave on high. Seafood proteins tighten and become rubbery when rapidly heated. Reheat gently in a covered pan over low heat with a splash of water or stock to create gentle steam, preserving moisture.
