Never forget:
·
When you freeze fresh foods with a 'use by /best
before/best by/' date, you must freeze them before
this date expires.
·
Check that the food was not already frozen. Indeed,
frozen food that has thawed completely must not be
re-frozen.
·
Once defrosted, food should be consumed quickly.
