Notes
- To store. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 48 hours. To keep the crema fresh, I scoop the leftovers into a small airtight container and lay a piece of plastic wrap over the crema before placing the lid on. It may turn a little brownish in color (like what happens with fresh guacamole), but if you give it a stir it’s still good.
