Storage Tips

Because of the cooked fish and other perishable ingredients, storing a salmon sushi bake requires some care. Here’s the best way to handle leftovers:

In the Fridge:

• Cool Down: Let the sushi bake cool down to room temperature before you put it in the fridge. This prevents condensation from forming, which can make the food spoil faster.
• Container: Use an airtight container. This is important to keep the sushi bake fresh and to prevent it from absorbing odors (or leaking odors) from other foods in your fridge. If you don’t have a container that seals tightly, you can use a dish with a tight-fitting lid or wrap it well with plastic wrap.
• Toppings: It’s usually best to store the toppings separately. Things like avocado, cucumber, and kimchi can get mushy or wilt in the fridge. Store them in their own containers and add them when you’re ready to eat.
• How Long: Sushi bake is best eaten within 2-3 days of making it.

Reheating (if desired):

• Gentle Warming: If you want to reheat it, do so gently. You can use the microwave, but be careful not to overcook it, as the fish and rice can become dry. A better option might be to reheat individual portions in a pan on the stovetop with a little bit of water to keep it moist.

Important Food Safety Note:

• Don’t leave it out: Never leave the sushi bake at room temperature for more than two hours. This is a food safety rule to prevent bacteria growth.

Enjoy your leftover sushi bake!

Leftover Salmon Sushi Bake can be made into a dip.

Simply mix up the entire leftover casserole and spoon into a bowl. Serve with toasted nori, crackers, toasted bread or crostini, fresh veggies or more!
