Storing fruits and vegetables
Store fruit and vegetables in the crisper drawer.
Use of the freezer
-
Store food that you want to keep for a long period of time in the freezer drawers, the
temperature of which is below -18 ºC.
-
Large fish and meat should be cut into small pieces and placed in freezer bags before
placing them in the freezer-compartment drawers.
-
Let hot food cool down to room temperature before putting it in the freezer compartment.
-
Do not place liquids in glass or canned containers in the freezer compartment; if you do so,
they may explode.
Divide food into small portions.
-
-
It is best to package food before freezing. Make sure that the container to be used is dry.
Food should be packaged or covered with durable, non-toxic, non-polluting, tasteless, air-
and water-tight materials to prevent cross-contamination and odour transfer.
Tips for buying frozen food
-
When buying frozen food, pay attention to the storage instructions on the package.
-
Check the temperature of the freezer of the shop where you buy them.
Make sure that the packaging of frozen food is in perfect condition.
-
-
When you go to the supermarket, buy frozen products last.
-
Try to keep frozen foods together while shopping and on the way home, as this will keep
them fresher.
Do not buy frozen foods unless you can freeze them immediately. Isothermal bags are
-
available in most supermarkets and department stores. In them, frozen food is kept cold
for a longer period of time.
-
Some foods do not require defrosting before cooking. Vegetables and pasta can be added
directly to boiling water or steamed. Frozen sauces and soups can be placed in a pan and
heated gently until thawed.
-
Use quality foods and alter them as little as possible. When food is frozen in small
quantities, it takes less time to freeze and thaw.
Calculate the amount of food to be frozen. When freezing large quantities of food, lower
-
the freezer temperature. This way, food can be frozen quickly maintaining its freshness.
