Storage Time
3–4 days in the refrigerator, up to 3 months in the freezer.
Temperature
Store refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F).
Freezing
Homemade stuffed cabbage freezes exceptionally well. Allow the cooked dish to cool completely before portioning it into airtight containers or heavy-duty freezer bags. For best quality, consume within 3 months. To thaw, transfer to the refrigerator overnight and reheat gently on the stovetop or in the oven. Freezing may slightly alter the texture of the cabbage, making it softer.
Signs of Spoilage
- A sour or off odor emanating from the dish.
- Slimy or mushy texture of the cabbage leaves or filling.
- Visible mold growth on any part of the stuffed cabbage.
