How long can you keep cook pasta in the fridge?
I've been making my own sauces, tomato puree, tomato paste, etc. for decades. The sauce should stay good if properly sealed for 3 days. If you plan on making it ahead of time for any occasion - place in clean freezer containers and freeze. I freeze and can my own sauces - for my frozen sauces I keep them no longer than 30 days. Thaw in the refrigerator over night and reheat the next day. No waste - no loss - and a time saver. To freeze - make sauce and refrigerate in glass or ceramic bowls over night; the next day fill freezer containers, seal and freeze (la bel and date as well).

How long you can keep frozen tomato sauce?
Well, it depends on the condition of the tomato. Fresh tomatoes will start to deteriorate a few days after being left on a shelf. Make sure the lid on a canned tomato is completely sealed. Tomatoes are perishable. That is, their lifespan is short and they will parish very quickly. Store them in a cool place with no humidity, and they will last longer.
