measure it later. This is a good way to store meat mixes, seasoning mixes, SNACK CAKE MIX, MUFFIN MIX and any other mix that uses the same amount of mix in each recipe. Use plastic containers such as margarine tubs, drink-mix cans or any metal can with a lid, glass jars or heavy-duty-foil packets.

Labeling—Before you place a mix on the shelf or in the freezer, make sure it is properly labeled. Resist the urge to store a mix, then label it later, because later the mixes may all look alike! On each container, write the name of the mix and the date by which it should be used. In most instances the mixes can be stored longer than the specified time, but at the risk of loss in flavor and nutrients. You may also want to write down the amount of mix in each container, particularly if you have divided the mix into premeasured amounts.

1. Airtight canisters, jars and cans are useful for storing mixes. Freezer containers should allow for expansion of frozen mixes.

2. On each mix container write the name and date by when mix should be used. Also record the amount of mix and recipe page number.
