How to keep the rest
To maintain its freshness and potency, store the remaining seasoning in its original container with the lid tightly sealed. Keep it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Proper storage will ensure the vibrant flavor and aroma are preserved for future use.
