Storing commercially frozen food
o
The storage time and recommended temperature for storing
commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging.
o
Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for storage and
use of frozen food.
o
When shopping, be careful to choose food which is adequately
packed and is provided with complete storage instructions. It
should have been stored in a freezer where the temperature
does not rise above -18°C.
o
Do not buy packages of food that are covered with frost. This
could indicate that the package has thawed at least once before.
o
Take care that your frozen food packages do not start to thaw
before you place them in your freezer. This will shorten the
length of time that you can safely store the food for.
Defrosting frozen food
o
Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be used as soon as
possible.
o
Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy the micro
organisms which rapidly activate themselves after defrosting and
make foods perishable.
o
Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of food, especially
fruits, vegetables and readymade meals.
