How long can it be stored in the fridge after opening? Can it be frozen to last longer? Thanks!

There is an expiration date on the jar, but as with most perishable items once opened it should be consumed sooner. Hard to say exactly, but I've used mine within 2 months after opening and seemed to be fine. As far as freezing I would not recommend freezing in the glass jar as these tend to shatter when frozen. I supposed you could move this to a different container to freeze it. These are small jars and you get about 3 uses of 2 tablespoons each.

How long does it last in the fridge after opening? Can it be frozen to store longer?

Squid ink is a very stable product. I've kept some in the fridge for months and it's just fine. I've never frozen it, but I'm sure it would be fine to do so.

M**R

You know what? In my ignorance, I was alarmed when I ordered "squid ink" and "cuttlefish ink" arrived. Granted, too, while the written description says "squid" the image of the bottle says "cuttlefish" and I just didn't notice it in my haste to grab squid ink for 14 bucks. You see, I was intoxicated by that rarefied high known as "I told you so." I recently began making my own pasta. I'm not Italian, but I have several (male) lovable, but patronizing, male Italian friends. I asked each one, "Where can I buy squid ink?" And each one sort of chuckled indulgently and said, "Oh, nobody sells that; you have to buy the squid and get the sac yourself (you silly goose)." I even asked in an Italian deli--same response. So when I saw this on Amazon, I jumped. I KNEW it was sold in a jar, and I was right. So like I said, squid v. cuttlefish: After I saw the discrepancy, I looked it up. Apparently cuttlefish is considered SUPERIOR to squid ink: it lacks the aftertaste of iodine, it's packaged to last, and the color is just as black. I used it and was a little worried that the pasta would be gray, but it cooked to a lovely sable black. I think I used a rounded teaspoon? for a pasta for 6. Very pleased with the product!
