To store:<\/strong> Let sauce cool, uncovered at room temperature, for 25 minutes. Transfer to an airtight container(s) and refrigerate up to 4 days. Or transfer to airtight freezer containers in the portion size you&#8217;ll most likely use. Be sure to leave about \u00bd-inch headspace for expansion. Freeze up to 2 months.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4.
