how do you store caned tuna?

Question

Hi, lets say i opened a can of tuna but i want to eat just half of it..how can i store the other half? in its oil?

Answer 1

Do not store in can. Place in a glass bowl, cover with film & store in fridge.

Answer 2

Cover the can with aluminum foil instead of plastic wrap because foil is a better oxygen barrier. Refrigerate it and it should be good for a few more days. Canned tuna has a nearly infinite shelf life, but it can spoil after being opened.
In the future, consider buying a smaller can or tuna in a resealable pouch.

Answer 3

Put it in a little dish with the oil and cover with saran wrap and stick it in the fridge.

Storing opened cans in a fridge is dangerous for food poisoning.

Answer 4

Never store food in the can it comes in after you open it, it a good way to get sick. Store it in a plastic or glass container with a tight fitting lid and refrigerate.
