Use of the freezer
food should be stored in the bottom two
baskets and laid evenly. Don't put unfrozen
food directly on the ready-frozen food.
Thawing of food
1 Depending on the type of food and how it is to
be cooked, choose from the following thawing
methods:
— at room temperature
— in the cooler
— in an electric oven
— in a microwave oven
2 Uncooked, thawed food should not be
refrozen. When re-freezing defrosted and
then cooked food, the following should be
noted:
a) Fish, meat, dairy products and other fast
perishing food, must not be left exposed to
temperatures above 3°C for more than 12
hours. Other types of food, such as
vegetables, should not be exposed to
temperatures above 3°C for more than 12 hours.
The food should always be checked for any
change in smell or color.
b) The food should be thoroughly cooked and
then placed in a container before being refrozen.
c) The safe freezer storage time for defrosted and
then cooked food is shorter than for fresh food.
