Tips on Freezing Foods
[continued)
To freeze meat, fish and poultry, wrap well in freezer-
weight bil (or other heavy-duty wrapping material)
forming it carefully to the shape of the contenls_ This
expels air, Fold and crimp ends of the package to
provide a good, lasting seal
Don't refreeze meat that has completely thawed; meat,
whether raw or cooked, can be frozen successfully only
once
For Convenience._
• Store like things together_ This saves both time and
electricity because you can find foods faster
• Place the oldest items up front so they can be used up
promptly
• Use shelves on the door for most often used sauces and
condiments
. Use the meat drawer for meats you do not freeze

longer when stored in closed plastic containers or
wrapped in plastic film

compartment with a lot of warm food at one time

perishables as possible in the refrigerator Move the
