Unopened spaghetti sauce jars should be stored in a cool, dark, and dry pantry. Once opened, transfer the sauce to an airtight container and refrigerate immediately. It's best to use refrigerated sauce within 5-7 days. You can also freeze leftover sauce in freezer-safe containers for longer storage, up to 2-3 months. Be sure to leave some headspace in the container as the sauce will expand when frozen.
