Uncooked conchiglie pasta can last indefinitely in the pantry if stored correctly, though quality may slightly diminish after 2 years. Cooked conchiglie pasta should be consumed within 3–4 days when refrigerated.

Store uncooked conchiglie pasta in a cool, dry place, ideally between 15–21°C (59–70°F). Refrigerate cooked conchiglie pasta at 0–4°C (32–40°F).

Signs of Spoilage

• Presence of mold or discoloration on uncooked pasta.
• A stale or musty odor emanating from the package.
