Enjoy the crispy, savory delight of fried eddoe slices, a delicious root vegetable snack. Properly stored, these golden morsels can retain their delightful texture and flavor for optimal enjoyment.

Storage Time

3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 2–3 months in the freezer for best quality.

Temperature

Store in the refrigerator at or below 4°C (40°F).

Freezing

To freeze fried eddoe slices, ensure they are completely cooled. Spread them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze until solid. Once frozen, transfer the slices to an airtight container or freezer bag, removing as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight or gently reheat in an oven or air fryer to restore crispness. Freezing may slightly alter the texture, making them a bit softer upon thawing.

Signs of Spoilage

• Unpleasant, sour, or rancid odor.
• Slimy or sticky texture.
• Visible mold growth, often appearing as fuzzy patches of various colors.
