ARRANGING FOOD IN YOUR FRIDGE-FREEZER
o The location of your appliance
Freezer Compartment
Your freezer's chief function is to allow you to store
•
deep-frozen or frozen foods for long periods of time,
and to make ice cubes.
DO NOT put warm food into the freezer.
•
DO NOT put fresh or warmish food with frozen food
•
side-by-side as the former can thaw the latter and
cause spoilage.
While freezing fresh food (meat, fish, mincemeat,
•
etc.), divide into bagged parts so you can access them
separately.
The instructions shown on frozen food packages should
•
always be carefully followed. If no information is
provided, food should not be stored for more than 3
months from the purchase date.
When buying frozen food, ensure that these have been
•
frozen at suitable temperatures and that the packaging
is intact and not sodden. Store your frozen goods in
your freezer as soon as possible after purchase.
If a package of frozen food shows signs of swelling or
•
wet marks, it is probable that the food had previously
been poorly stored and has now deteriorated. Discard
it.
