rub storage?
I was wondering what you guys store your rubs in. I've been looking for a decent large volume shaker with an airtight lid, but no luck. I'd like to make large batches in advance so they're ready when I need them. Any ideas?

We put our rubs in freezer bags. Remove all of the air, place in a storage container and place in the freezer. Keeps rubs fresh. We keep all of our hebs in the freezer.

I don't like the shakers myself. Store rub in a ziplock, pour the amount I'm gonna use in a bowl and sprinkle on by hand. Any left in the bowl gets tossed. No contamination. That's just my preference.

another good reason to get a vacuum sealer. either use the canisters and put your rubs in their or vac seal in small bags.

Vac-sealed, canister and bags, depending on how much and how many I have at the moment.

I put my rubs back in to large shaker bottles that spices come in (like Tones for instance). I always shake out of the bottle, but I shake from the 'spoon opening'.
As a side note, this is one area I could really improve. I tend to often use pretty cheap spices, from the super market or Costco. Might be nice to use fresher or more high quality stuff. On a side - side note, it just ocurred to me, I use a lot of Paprika! I need to invest in Paprika company stock, as well as paper towel company stock and Aluminum Foil company stock. |

I started washing glass salsa bottles when empty and keeping them around for storage, too.

I just remembered that Alton Brown uses a parma-cheese shaker like a pizza place uses. To keep it fresher he puts a piece of wax paper under the lid and screws it down, then removes it when needed.
