Tips for freezing and storing fresh food.
•
Before freezing, wrap and seal fresh food in:
aluminium foil, cling film, air and water-tight plastic
bags, polythene containers with lids, freezer
containers suitable for freezing fresh food.
•
Food must be fresh, mature and of prime quality in
order to obtain high quality frozen food.
•
Fresh vegetables and fruit should preferably be
frozen as soon as they are picked to maintain the
full original nutritional value, consistency, colour
and flavour.
Some meat, especially game, should be hung before
it is frozen.
Note:
•
Always leave hot food to cool before placing in the
freezer.
•
Eat fully or partially defrosted foods immediately.
Do not refreeze unless the food is cooked after it
has thawed. Once cooked, the food can be
refrozen.
Storing food
•
Place the ice packs (if supplied) in the space
provided (on the last grid) or above the food stored
in the top compartment.
Important:
The table alongside shows the recommended
maximum storage time for frozen fresh foods.
Declared performance refers to appliance
operation without ice packs, with the exception of
the rising time and the freezing of produce which
specifically requires them.
Classification of frozen foods
Put the frozen products into the freezer and classify
them.
The storage date should be indicated on the packs, to
allow use within expiry dates.
