Soup base, once opened, should be refrigerated promptly in an airtight container to maintain its quality and prevent spoilage. Unopened containers can typically be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Check the expiration date on the packaging for the best before date. Some soup bases can also be frozen for longer-term storage; portion into freezer-safe containers or bags to avoid thawing the entire amount at once.
