Casing storage

[lumpy]

Hi Guys,
Got some casing from my butcher (25' for $4) how are these things stored, and what is the storage life?  I saw that he pulled them out of a mesh bag from the cooler and where covered in salt.

Thanks

I store mine packed in salt in the refer.  I've stored them for up to a year without any problem but they usually get used before I've had them for six months.

Thanks Tom

Your right about the long term storage issue. Doubt mine will be in for even a month.

 8)Lumpy!  Put in zip-lock bag and cover with salt and they will last for a year or so in Refrigerator.  I have had some for a couple of years.  Normally they don't last that long as one hase to keep filling them with wonderfull treats...
