How to keep the rest
After opening, store the seasoning in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain its freshness and potency. Ensure the container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture from entering, which can cause clumping and diminish the flavor over time. Proper storage will help preserve the aromatic qualities of the blend for future use.
