Cook once and eat for four days. These recipes hold their texture in the fridge.

What You'll Learn

You will learn which dishes hold and which do not, how to store each part, and how to reheat without drying the food out.

Store the parts, not the dish

Keep sauce and vegetables in separate containers. Combine them when you eat. The texture holds far better this way.

💡

I portion rice into single servings and freeze it flat. It reheats in two minutes and tastes freshly cooked.

🎓
Did you know?

Japanese bento culture is built on food that tastes good cold. Many dishes are seasoned more strongly for that reason.

Pro Tip

Cool food fast before it goes in the fridge. Spread it on a tray. Warm food in a sealed box makes its own steam and goes soggy.
