Notes
Storage
Keep the leftovers in an airtight container, preferably a small one, so there’s less exposure to air, which causes browning. Press a piece of plastic wrap at the very top of the spread to help slow down oxidation even more. For extra protection, drizzle a thin layer of olive oil at the top before sealing.
Keep the container in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days.
