How to keep the rest
After opening, store any unused pumpkin puree in a sealed container in the refrigerator. It is best to use the leftover puree within a few days to maintain its freshness. Proper storage helps prevent spoilage and ensures the quality of the ingredient for future use. Do not store it in the opened can.
