HG Storage Tips: These will stay fresh in the fridge for about a week. To freeze 'em, tightly wrap each fully cooled piece in foil or plastic wrap. Then place 'em in a sealable container or bag, seal, and freeze. To thaw one, unwrap and place on a microwave-safe plate. Cover or wrap in a paper towel, and microwave for about 1 1/2 minutes.
