How do you know if your Junket Products are still good to use?
Junket Products are known for their classic and traditional appeal. Because of this, they might stay in the food pantry for a special occasion, and in some cases, be forgotten behind taller non-perishable items.
Ice Cream, Custard, and Danish have a "shelf life" of 24 months. This means the quality of the product does not start to deteriorate until after 24 months from the day it was produced.
Rennet Tablets have a "shelf life" of 12 months.
You can find out the day a product was produced by looking on the box.
What does that mean?
-
You might have to hold your package up to the light to view the imprinnt.
-
This particular code in the picture says 16308.
-
This means that the product was produced on the 163rd day of 2008, which happens to be June 11th.
-
With a shelflife of 2 years, this product is good until June 11th of 2010.
-
Sometimes you will see a product that says 1638 - In this case, the code still represents the 163rd day of 2008.
Tablets are read in a different way.
-
Instead of five numbers, there are four.
-
The first number is the last number of the year it was produced, and then the following three numbers is the day it was produced.
-
In this case it is the 319th day of 2008.
-
So with a shelf life of two years, these tablets are good until November of 2010.
So clean out the pantry, and be sure to make delicious desserts with Junket Dessert Products.
