5 USING YOUR FREEZER
FROZEN / DEEP-FROZEN PRODUCE
appliance can be used to freeze food. It quickly reduces the temperature
at the core, so that you can keep your food for longer.
Deep-freezing is an industrial process that is faster and more
intense than domestic freezing. The produce that you buy from
retailers is deep-frozen.
PREPARING FOOD BEFORE FREEZING
Caution:
freezing does not sterilise. Therefore, it is important to follow a
few simple hygiene rules before freezing. Wash your hands
before touching the food, clean any kitchen utensils that may be
dirty before using them.
Only freeze fresh, quality produce.
Refer to the "Freezing guide" table to see which food you can
freeze and how long you can keep it.
Blanche fruit and vegetables before freezing so that they keep
their colour, flavour and vitamins. Put them in boiling water for a
few instants. When you freeze food, prepare small individual
portions of a meal for one. Smaller portions freeze more quickly.
Carefully seal the food to prevent it from loosing its flavour or
becoming dry. Use plastic bags, polythene film, kitchen foil or
boxes designed for freezing. If you use plastic bags, squeeze all
the air out before sealing them.
Caution:
bottles or jars containing liquid must only be two-thirds full when
they are put in the freezer. The liquid will expand when it
freezes, and could shatter the recipient.
On each article, make a note
of:
• the date when frozen
• the best-by date
• the type of food
• the number of portions
If you buy deep frozen products, use them last
when you do your shopping
Check:
• that the packaging is not damaged
• that they are not covered with a coat of ice, as this would
indicate that they have partly thawed
Put them in an insulated bag or newspaper, transport them
quickly and store them immediately. Use before the best-by date
shown on the packaging. Your appliance has a freezer
compartment **** that can be used to preserve products under
optimal conditions.
