Freezing Fresh Foods
Useful tips
Use quality food and handle it as little as possible.
Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes less time to thaw
and enables you to eat it in the quantity you need.
When freezing fresh foods do not place them in contact with already
frozen foods.
Freezing fresh foods
First, estimate the amount of food you will be freezing.
Turn the thermostat to Max. It will therefore freeze quicker and keep
in the goodness.
However you should use it sparingly to conserve energy.
What not to Freeze
Bananas, Pomegranates or Pears. Carbonated liquids should never be
frozen.
USING YOUR CHEST FREEZER
To Thaw
1 Cover food loosely.
2 Thaw at room temperature. Don’t forget that thawing in a warm area
encourages the growth of bacteria.
3 Always make sure there are no ice crystals in the food before cooking,
particularly with meat. These crystals indicate that the food is not fully
thawed. They result in lower temperatures when cooking. Lower
cooking temperatures may not destroy dangerous bacteria.
4 Cook food as soon as possible after thawing.
5
Oven Thawing
Many microwaves and ovens have thaw settings.
To avoid bacterial build up, only use these if you intend to cook the food
immediately afterwards.
Safety Tips
Never re-freeze anything that has thawed out unless you cook it
Useful Tips
Re-seal packs properly after removing items. This prevents drying or
‘freezer burn’ and a build up of frost on any remaining food.
Shopping for frozen foods
Your Freezer is 4 star
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the
packaging. You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the
period shown against the 4 star rating. This is usually the period stated as
‘Best Before’, on the front of the packaging.
Check the freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you
buy your frozen foods. It should show a temperature lower than -18°C.
Choose packs carefully
Take a quick look at the frozen food package and make sure it is in
perfect condition.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit to the
supermarket.
Keep frozen foods together
When you are going around the supermarket and when you are travelling
home, if you keep all the frozen foods together they will help to keep
each other cold.
Store food straight away
Don’t buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special
insulated bags can be bought from most supermarkets and hardware
shops. These keep frozen food cold for longer.
Thawing frozen food
For some foods, thawing before cooking is unnecessary. Vegetables and
pasta can be added directly to boiling water or steam cooked. Frozen
sauces and soups can be put into a saucepan and heated gently until
thawed.
