A useful starting point
Use current official food-safety guidance for cooling, storage and reheating, taking the ingredients and actual conditions into account. Prepare suitable containers and a plan before the table becomes cluttered. Do not use a remembered restaurant practice as a universal rule for a home kitchen. If safe handling is uncertain, seek reliable guidance rather than guessing.
Bring it into your kitchen
Label what has been stored and keep the relevant timing information. Reheat using a method appropriate to the food and equipment, following official guidance. A journal photograph cannot establish that a leftover is suitable to eat. Planning also helps you choose a realistic amount for the next meal, reducing the pressure to keep food simply because too much was made.
