Don’t worry, we’re going to walk you through best ways to store naan short-term or long-term, plus our go-to tips for reheating it so it tastes like it just came out of the oven.
How to Store YOUR PANAJI Naan Bread
1. Room Temperature (Short-Term Use: 1–5 Days)
If you plan to eat your naan within a day or two, store it in an airtight container or a zip-top bag. Keep it away from direct sunlight and in a cool, dry place like a bread box or pantry.
Tip: Make sure naan is completely cool before storing to avoid condensation.
2. Freezing (Long-Term Storage: Up to 3 Months)
Naan freezes beautifully! Place parchment paper between each piece, wrap in foil, and store in a freezer-safe bag. When stored properly, naan will hold up for up to three months without losing its flavor or texture.
Tips to Maintain Freshness and Texture
- Avoid light. Direct sunlight can cause naan to dry out faster
- Avoid heat. Store at room temperature, away from heat and high humidity
- Use resealable packaging and remove excess air before resealing. Alternatively, use any airtight container
- Freeze to keep fresh without any compromise to quality!
- Try freezing naan with parchment paper between each piece to avoid sticking
How to Reheat Naan Bread
We love our naan served warm with that slight chew and golden edge. Here are the best ways to reheat:
1. Stovetop
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Warm naan for 30–45 seconds per side. Add a touch of butter or ghee for extra flavor.
2. Oven
Preheat your oven to
350°F (175°C). Wrap naan in foil and bake for 5–7 minutes. For a crispy edge, open the foil for the last minute.
3. Microwave
Heat for 15-20 seconds.
3. Air Fryer
Pre-heat air fryer for 2 minutes and heat naan for 1 MIN AT 175°C [350°F]
