Is it good to save minced spice,kind of garlic,onions... in the refrigerator? Is it a good size too?

Well it doesn't seal, the lid just sits on top, so I guess it depends on whether you mind a stinky fridge or not.

The lid is glass on glass bowl so it would not keep odor from onions or garlic contained while in fridge. Is nice size though.

Its a good size, about the width of a standard drinking glass and about the same height. The lid just sits on top with no seal and doesn't lock or twist into place. In the refrigerator the lid may get "bumped off".

I would say no. It is about 3.5" across the top and 3" tall. The top just sits on the bowl so it doesn't seal. It is great for salt.

It's a fairly good size. Too big for a minced spice -- unless you are looking to store A LOT of it.I use this to keep my kosher salt right next to my stove and prep area. The lid just sits atop the base so I'd be concerned that it might get knocked off easily in the fridge.Hope this helps!!

Rather large for leftover spices. Also, not a sealed top. Use mine for kosher salt at stove.

It easily fits 4 to 5 medium onions and 6 cloves of garlic. It is great and solved my storage problem. The onions and garlic are lasting longer than in a wire basket.

I haven't used it in the kitchen. It smells like fabric softner for your clothes. I don't think it's strong enough for a garlic/onion smell.

Hey Cathy, The container it comes in is pretty robust. I have kept the same container for storing and the saffron is still the same quality from my first buy 2 years ago. So its pretty good to store too.

yes i have sealed spices and stored them in the freezer or refrigerator. you have to check the bags after a couple of days as sometimes they get a pinhole in them and lose their seal. but overall they work great

I don't know that there would be any one answer to that question, as several factors would play into that conclusion such as the type of garlic, quality and freshness to begin with. Experts say that garlic should be stored in a cool, dark place with air circulation; the garlic keeper helps to provide that (assuming that the kitchen/room itself is kept cool). An additional factor may be that most supermarket garlic purchased has been irradiated to keep it from spouting, in other words, it is already dead, not a living bulb.

It's good for sauteing and for slow cooking Chinese casseroles. I have cooked rice in it once; it came out moist and good. Let me know if you have any more questions. :]

Hi, Its a nice product and you can always full the jars again,The bad thing is that don'tClose well and the spices won't last to long.. Sadly it's nice but not functional

I never see any shelf life on any of my spices. So my answer would be if you have it longer then a year throw it out. You could call the companythe number in on the container.Mine don't last a year so I just would go by that.

The jar is small and you use it like butter. It keeps in the refrigerator just fine. I had mine open for a couple weeks with no problem. But I assume you could take out portions and freeze them. Enjoy.

I kept the black garlic in the original bag in the refrigerator since I purchased several months ago. They are still fine. Although I have never kept them in freezer, I don't think it is good idea. Although I have been out of the country for three months, I started taking it again when I came back a couple days ago. They are perfectly fine.

I wouldn't recommend the use of these jars for spice storage. They are made to go in the 'fridge to store yogurt, so I couldn't guarantee they would be adequately airtight for spices. I would recommend something with a vacuum seal.

I haven't dried herbs, garlic or onions in mine but I would not hesitate to use it for this purpose. Herbs probably take the lowest setting and onions and garlic a bit higher.

I have used old c of t (over two years) without a problem. I store this in the pantry and move small amount to the kitchen spice cabinet for immediate use.

Yes definitely. That's the main thing I use my larger pampered chef one for...onions and garlic. My buddy liked it so much I bought him the mini one. For onions, you'd probably have to quarter them first.
