IMPORTANT WARNINGS ON FREEZING FRESH
FOOD
STORAGE OF INDUSTRIALLY FROZEN FOOD
•
When storing and using frozen food, observe the manufacturer's instructions.
Temperature and expiry date are indicated on the packaging.
•
Only choose food with undamaged packaging, stored in freezers at temperatures of 0°F or lower.
•
Do not purchase food covered in frost as this indicates they have been partly defrosted several
times and that they are of inferior quality.
•
Protect the food from thawing during transport. In case of an increase in temperature, storage
time will be shorter and quality will deteriorate.
Only freeze the food that is suitable for freezing in the freezer. Make
sure the food you freeze is of high quality and fresh.
Choose appropriate packaging and use the packaging correctly.
Packaging should not be permeable to humidity; it should be airtight to
prevent the food from drying out and loss of vitamins.
Label the food; indicate the type of food, amount, and date of freezing.
It is important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible. Therefore,
keep the packages small. Refrigerate the food before freezing.
