Refrigeration protects eggs against pathogen growth. Eggs also age 4 times faster when they are unrefrigerated, so eggs that normally have a 30-45 day shelf life, would deteriorate in just over a week. The rule of thumb is that refrigerated foods should not be left out at room temperature for more than 2 hours. Views Â· View Upvotes.
The Big Freeze. You can store fresh pasta in the freezer for up to two weeks. Fold, dry and wrap the pasta just as you would for refrigeration. Place the wrapped pasta bundles in a resealable freezer bag or airtight container to prevent the pasta from absorbing odors in the freezer and minimize the chance of freezer burn.
Cooked pasta that has been thawed in the fridge can be kept for an additional 3 to 4 days in the refrigerator before cooking; pasta that was thawed in the microwave or in cold water should be eaten immediately.
