TIPS FOR STORING PECANS

To keep pecans fresh and flavorful, follow these guidelines:
  • ​Shelled pecans can be kept in the refrigerator for about nine months and for up to two years in the freezer.
  • Pecans can be thawed and refrozen repeatedly during the two-year freezing period without loss of flavor or texture.​
  • Airtight containers, such as jars with lids, are best for storing pecans in the refrigerator.
  • Sealed plastic bags are best for storing pecans in the freezer.
  • After removal from cold storage, pecans will stay good for an additional two months.​
