Making it ahead
Cool it, get it into the fridge within one to two hours and eat it within two days; freeze portions you will not reach in time. Cooked rice is stricter: chill it within an hour, keep it for a day at most and reheat it only once. Reheat until steaming hot all the way through. How we handle food safety.
