How long will these keep for?
Sara Maniez says
Hi Star! Thanks for your question! The longevity of stored boba pearls largely depends on the type of pearls and how they're stored. Typically, homemade or freshly prepared boba pearls should be consumed within a few hours for the best texture and taste. However, if you've got store-bought, uncooked pearls, they can last longer.
Here's a general guideline:
-Uncooked Boba Pearls: If properly sealed in an airtight container and stored in a cool, dry place, uncooked boba pearls can last for several months. However, always check the expiration date on the package and follow any specific storage instructions provided by the manufacturer.
-Cooked Boba Pearls: Once cooked, boba pearls are best consumed within a few hours for the optimal texture. However, if you need to store them, place them in a container with some of the cooking liquid (sugar syrup or water) to prevent them from sticking together. They can be refrigerated for up to 2-3 days. Beyond that, they may become too firm or lose their flavor.
Always use your best judgment when assessing the freshness of any food item, and if in doubt, it's safer to discard them rather than risk foodborne illness. Have a great day!
