Roti storage

[sruthi]

Could anybody tell me how to store rotis for a long time. Do we have to refridgerate them or after preparing hv to place in an airtight container ? Last time I tried storing 20 rotis in an airtight container but everything's rotted after 4 days. Help me.
Thanks,
Sruthi

Hi sruthi,
herez a way u can store roti's for a long time .just follow these steps
don't add oil while making the roti atta
add some milk if ur planning on storing
make the roti's without any ghee/oil in it.
allow the roti's to cool by keeping it on a plate covering them with a paper towel .
once all the roti's r cooled, place the roti in a airtight container without folding any of them.
try keeping a cotton muslin cloth /paper towels over all the rotis. don't press / crowd many roti's in one container.
finally close it with the lid. remove the air once a while.
when ur reheating rotis just remove only the amt u need and keep the rest again in the fridge.

try,hope it works

Hi,
I've been planning to prepare ghee from store-bought butter. How long can I keep it ? What is the life-time of the ghee generally ?

It shd come minimum 20 to 25 days. Recently went on a vacation for 2 months and my hub., was also not at home for 3 weeks. If you keep in the fridge, it will come more than the said period.
