The combination of pasta and cream can slow digestion for some people. Large portions and eating quickly can make that heavy feeling more noticeable.
Once cooled and refrigerated in a sealed container, it is usually best eaten within 2–3 days. Because it contains dairy, it should not be left at room temperature for long.
Yes, but cream-based sauces can separate slightly after thawing. Reheating it gently while stirring usually gives the best texture.
