After opening the can, the mango puree must be kept in the refrigerator. The product's recommended storage time after opening is indicated on the packaging, so follow that guidance. As a general rule, fruit purees are best used within a few days to avoid spoilage.
To keep the puree fresh, transfer any unused portion to a clean, airtight container before refrigerating. This prevents it from absorbing other odours and reduces the risk of contamination. Always use a clean spoon when scooping out the puree to avoid introducing bacteria.
If you notice an off smell, discolouration, or any signs of mould, discard the puree. Unopened cans should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. After opening, do not leave the can at room temperature for extended periods.
If you cannot use the whole can within the recommended time, you can freeze the puree in portions. Pour it into ice cube trays or small containers, then thaw only what you need. Thawed puree may have a slightly different texture, but it remains suitable for cooking or blending.
