Notes
May be stored in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for 2-3 months. Cover surface of sauce/ganache directly with saran wrap to minimize oxidation and prevent formation of “skin.” Follow by wrapping storage container itself. Reheat gently in microwave or over a double boiler, stirring occasionally
