How long is it safe to keep rice salad in the fridge for?
I love rice salad but I am the only one that eats it in my house.

Cooked rice is one of the worse things for getting botulism apparently!!!!

If you make your rice salad with all cooked ingredients, you can freeze it small portions so it doesn't hang around at room temperature

If your fridge doesn't have a thermometer I would recommend getting one. It should be between 0C - 5C to 6C.

Don't keep it for more than 24 hours. Depending on what's in it I would be tempted to stir fry leftovers at a very high heat and throw in an egg and some soy.

I was told that on my food hygiene course years ago, when ever I tell anyone they never belive me :shock: I was starting to think I'd dreamt it

Thanks for the answers. I had a vague recollection about food poisoning, so didn't want to risk it.
