"Stored in an airtight container in the fridge, homemade yum yum sauce will last for one week. It tastes even better with each passing day, as the flavors have been allowed to meld and chill. But, for foodies playing the long game, start checking on your batch after the seven day mark (that is, if there are any leftovers remaining by then). If your sauce smells at all "off" or has begun to separate, toss it out."
"Marking the tub with a piece of masking tape with the prep date written on it can be a helpful gauge of time passed. Also, to minimize excess oxygen exposure (aka oxidation, one of the main culprits of food spoilage), store your sauce in as small of a container as possible; the less empty air space between the sauce and the walls of the container, the better."
Homemade yum yum sauce stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator remains fresh for one week and often tastes better after flavors meld. Check the sauce after seven days and discard it if it smells off or begins to separate. Mark the container with a prep date to track storage time. Minimize oxygen exposure by using as small a container as possible to reduce empty air space and slow oxidation. Chilled yum yum sauce serves as a versatile dip for raw vegetables, chicken nuggets, sushi, fries, and wings.
