To maintain freshness, flavor, and prevent rancidity, store nut butter in a cool, dark place. An unopened jar can be kept at room temperature for several months. Once opened, refrigeration is recommended, especially for natural nut butters without preservatives. Refrigeration can cause the nut butter to harden, so allow it to come to room temperature slightly before using for easier spreading. Avoid storing nut butter near heat sources or in direct sunlight.
