Keep chilled and do not rely on generic reheating advice. The delivered label gives the definitive after-opening, storage, ingredient and use-by information.

Choose the format that matches the meal, guest count and storage capacity rather than treating one as a universal substitute for the other.

The UK Food Standards Agency advises consumers to follow the pack and cook food safely; see its current cooking guidance. For raw foods, avoid cross-contamination and cook as the label directs.
