Label Clearly

Always use a sterilised, airtight glass container. Avoid plastic, which can absorb odours and leach chemicals.

Press a layer of cling film directly onto the surface of the roe before sealing the container to reduce oxidation.

Mark the container with the date of opening and the 'use by' date to ensure safe consumption within two days.
