Not my parents, me. Brown sugar goes in the freezer so it doesn’t dry out and become a piece of granite.

Add a slice of bread to the container. Never had a problem.

I make it as I need it by adding molasses to white sugar.

Air tight container, or as I learned recently by pure chance in a ziplock baggy, just press the air out until it forms the size of the brown sugar and then seal it. Freezer space is limited for me so wasting it on 2 lbs of brown sugar isn’t ideal in my case.

Yeah, we’re the opposite, we have a chest freezer in the garage on top of our kitchen freezer, so basically unlimited.

Just drop a quarter slice of apple or a damp paper towel in the container with it and it’ll rehydrate no problem.

Just keep it in a mason jar or similar, anything airtight

Same hunk of brown sugar for 10 years. Is there a shelf life? We don’t eat that much sugar…
