你需要的唯一的感恩节剩菜指南

你需要的唯一的感恩节剩菜指南

Like an inbox filled with emails about Black Friday sales, the one thing you can count on the day after Thanksgiving is a fridge packed with leftovers.

就像收件箱里塞满了有关黑色星期五促销的电子邮件一样，感恩节后你唯一能指望的就是装满剩菜的冰箱。

For many, this is easily the best part of the entire holiday -- but at a certain point, even the most devoted leftovers fans will question if that side dish is still OK to eat.

对许多人来说，这无疑是整个节日中最美妙的部分——但在某种程度上，即使是最忠实的剩菜爱好者也会质疑这道菜是否还可以吃。

Turkey

火鸡肉

Keeps for: Three to four days

保存三到四天

Cooked turkey, chicken and duck (in case you are making a turducken) will last three to four days in the fridge according to Foodsafety.gov.

根据Foodsafety.gov网站的说法，烹制好的火鸡、鸡肉和鸭肉(如果你要做火鸡的话)可以在冰箱里存放三到四天。

Do: Freeze the leftovers in foil or airtight containers as soon as possible; the fresher the turkey is when it goes in, the better.

建议:尽快将剩菜放入箔片或密封容器内冷藏;火鸡放进去的时候越新鲜越好。

Don't: It will take too long for the stuffing to cool and bacteria could grow. Instead, take the stuffing out and save it in a separate container before refrigerating or freezing the turkey meat.

不建议:馅料冷却时间过长，细菌就会滋生。相反，把火鸡的填充物拿出来，放在一个单独的容器里，然后冷藏或冷冻火鸡肉。

Ham

火腿

Keeps for: Three to four days

保存三到四天

Those popular spiral-cut hams or any store-wrapped cooked ham will last three to four days in the fridge. Cooked country hams will last a bit longer, up to a week.

那些受欢迎的螺旋形火腿或任何商店包装的熟火腿将在冰箱中保存三到四天。煮熟的乡间火腿会持续更长的时间，长达一周。

Do: Wrap it up tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil before refrigerating. If you choose to freeze, it will be good for one to two months.

建议:冷藏前用保鲜膜或铝箔把它紧紧地包起来。如果你选择冷冻，可以保存一到两个月。

Don't: Try to save any leftover ham that has a slimy texture -- that's a tell-tale sign it's gone bad.

不建议：尽量保存任何有粘稠质地的剩余火腿-这是一个信号，表明它已经坏了。

Mashed and sweet potatoes

土豆泥和红薯

Keeps for: Three to four days

保存三到四天

You'll likely have made them with cream and butter, so you'll need to put the spuds into the fridge within two hours of preparation. If stored in an airtight container, they will last three to four days in the fridge (this applies to any sort of cooked potato dish, such as potato salad or scalloped potatoes).

你可能已经用奶油和黄油做了，所以你需要在两个小时内把土豆放进冰箱。如果放在密封的容器里，它们可以在冰箱里保存三到四天(这适用于任何煮熟的土豆类食物，如土豆沙拉或扇贝土豆)。

Do: Consider freezing your mashed potatoes or gratins in airtight containers or plastic freezer bags within three days; they should be good for up to a month.

建议:考虑在三天内将土豆泥或烤面包屑放入密封容器或塑料冷冻袋中冷冻;它们应该可以使用一个月。

Don't: Don't: freeze the remaining raw potatoes that haven't been blanched; Otherwise, they will be watery when eaten later.

不建议:把剩下的没有事先焯过水端上桌的生土豆冷冻起来;否则，当之后食用的时候，它们将是水汪汪的。

Stuffing/dressing and gravy

填料/酱料和肉汁

Keeps for: Three to four days

保存三到四天

Any broth made with meat will last three to four days refrigerated and up to two months in the freezer. Same goes for that delicious dressing, if there's any left.

任何用肉做的汤在冰箱里可以冷藏三到四天，冷冻长达两个月。如果还有美味的调料的话，也是如此。

Do: Store it all within two hours of making, in an airtight container. If freezing, it will keep about a month.

建议:在制作后的两小时内，将其全部储存在密封的容器中。如果冷冻，可以保存一个月左右。

Don't: Forget and leave your stuffing in the turkey. It's a breeding ground for bacteria.

不建议：别忘了把填料留在火鸡里。这是细菌的滋生地。
