Dairy foods and eggs
· Most pre-packed dairy foods have a recommended
'use by /best before/best by/ date stamped on them.
Store them in the fridge compartment and use within
the recommended time.
· Butter can become tainted by strong smelling foods so
it is best stored in a sealed container.
· Eggs should be stored in the fridge compartment.
Red meat
· Place fresh red meat on a plate and loosely cover with
waxed paper, plastic wrap or foil.
· Store cooked and raw meat on separate plates. This
will prevent any juice lost from the raw meat from
contaminating the cooked product.
Poultry
· Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside and out with
cold running water, dried and placed on a plate. Cover
loosely with plastic wrap or foil.
· Poultry pieces should also be stored this way. Whole
poultry should never be stuffed until just before
cooking, otherwise food poisoning may result.
Fish and seafood
· Whole fish and fillets should be used on the day of
purchase. Until required, refrigerate on a plate loosely
covered with plastic wrap, waxed paper or foil.
· If storing overnight or longer, take particular care to
select very fresh fish. Whole fish should be rinsed in
cold water to remove loose scales and dirt and then
patted dry with paper towels. Place whole fish or fillets
in a sealed plastic bag.
· Keep shellfish chilled at all times. Use within 1-2 days.
