Storage of Frozen Foods
The storage time of purchased foodstuffs is
indicated on their wrapping.
When shopping, mind to choose only such
foodstuffs which are suitably packed, furnished
with full data and stored in freezers with a
temperature not higher than -18°C.
Do not buy packs of food wrapped with frost. This
is an indication that such a pack has undergone
thawing.
x
Protect the foodstuffs against defrosting.
x
Temperature rise shortens the frozen food
storage time.
Frozen Food Defrosting
Use as soon as possible the foodstuffs that
started to thaw or that are already defrosted. Cold
preserves the food but it does not destroy
microorganisms which rapidly activate
themselves after defrosting to make foodstuffs
perishable.
Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of
foods, especially of fruits, vegetables and ready-
made meals.
