    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    1)How long does this last?

    Raw Cauliflower Rice : If you turn cauliflower into rice and leave it in the fridge for a few days, it develops a strong and unpleasant sulfur smell. So it's best to use it right away or freeze it.

    Cooked Cauliflower Rice: Cooking prevents it from developing a funky smell as quickly. Cooked cauliflower rice keeps for approximately 4 days in a sealed container in the fridge.

    2)Can you freeze riced cauliflower?

    Yes! freezing after pressing out the moisture and before cooking. Freeze in a sealed container for up to 1 month.
