Storage & shelf life
What is the shelf life of Rainbow Masala products?+
The shelf life varies depending on the product and is clearly mentioned on every pack. For the best flavour and aroma, we recommend using the product before the Best Before date and storing it as directed on the packaging.

Keep the pack tightly sealed after every use or transfer the masala to an airtight container. Store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat and moisture. Always use a clean, dry spoon.
