Dairy Tips

Storing Milk and Dairy Products at Home

March 10, 2026 · Agrawal Dairy

Fresh dairy needs proper storage. Follow these tips from our team.

Milk

  • Refrigerate immediately at 4°C or below
  • Keep away from strong-smelling foods
  • Consume within 1–2 days of purchase for best taste
  • Boil only the amount you need; repeated boiling reduces quality

Curd (Dahi)

  • Store in the refrigerator, not the door shelf
  • Use a clean spoon each time
  • Best consumed within 3–4 days

Paneer

  • Keep submerged in water in an airtight container in the fridge
  • Change water daily if storing more than 24 hours
  • Use within 2–3 days for optimal freshness

Ghee

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
  • No refrigeration needed if kept clean and dry
  • Use a dry spoon to prevent moisture

Buy fresh daily from Agrawal Dairy — open 7 AM to 9 PM at Raviwar Peth.
