Dried rice noodles should be stored in a cool, dry, and dark place, such as a pantry or cupboard. Ensure the package is tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can lead to spoilage or a change in texture. Properly stored dried rice noodles can last for several years, but it's best to use them within two years for optimal quality and flavor. Avoid storing them in areas with high humidity or near strong-smelling foods, as they can absorb odors.
