How long does adjika last? Fridge, freezer & pantry
Unopened, adjika keeps in the fridge for 4 weeks. Once opened, use it within about 2 weeks for best quality and safety.
| Fridge | about 4 weeks |
|---|---|
| Freezer | Not recommended |
| Pantry (room temp) | Not recommended |
| After opening | about 2 weeks (refrigerated) |
Times are for unopened, properly stored adjika and reflect best quality. Always use your senses and follow any date on the package.
Signs adjika has gone bad
- Mould, separation that won't mix back, or a bulging lid.
- Off, sour, or fermented smell.
- Colour change or fizzing when opened.
When in doubt, throw it out — the cost of a spoiled meal isn't worth the risk.
Best way to store adjika
Many condiments are shelf-stable until opened, then need the fridge. Always check the label. Keep lids clean and tightly closed, and use a clean utensil so you don't introduce bacteria.
