Cooking oils & vinegar in Pantry(1000+)

How should I store cooking oil?

Sunlight can degrade the quality of cooking oils. To store cooking oils properly, keep them in a cool, dark environment. Think kitchen cupboard, pantry, or cabinet. And look for cooking oils that come in dark-colored bottles that sunlight can't penetrate as easily. Oxygen can also degrade cooking oil quality, so buy oils in glass bottles to keep the air out.

How long does olive oil last?

Olive oil typically lasts from 18 to 24 months from the time it is bottled. Once opened, olive oil will keep for about six months, but some manufacturers recommend using it within two months for the best flavor and freshness.

Does vinegar go bad?

Because vinegar is highly acidic, it typically doesn't go bad or expire. However, it's still a good idea to keep vinegar away from air and sunlight. Regular exposure to air and sunlight can cause vinegar to get cloudy or develop sediment, which while not harmful, may make vinegar less appetizing.
