★You'd better pack the food up before freezing it , and the
packing bag used should be dry, in case the packing bags are
frozen together . Foods should be packed or covered by such
suitable materials as are firm, tasteless, impervious to air and
water, non-toxic and pollution-free, to avoid cross-contamination
and transfer of odor.
Tips for shopping the frozen foods
1.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 star rating . This
is usually the period stated as "Best to use them before×", found
on the front of the packaging.
2.Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop
where you buy the frozen foods.
3.Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect condition.
4.Always buy frozen products last on your shopping trip or visit
to the supermarket.
5.Try to keep frozen food together whilst shopping and on the
journey home, as this will help to keep the food cooler.
6.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 the frozen foods cold longer.
7.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.
8.Use quality food and handle it as little as possible. When foods
are frozen in small quantities, it will take less than for them to
freeze up and thaw.
9.Estimate the amount of foods to be frozen up. When freezing
large amounts of fresh food, adjust the temperature control knob
to the low mode, with the freezer temperature lowered. So, foods
can be frozen up in fast manner, with the food freshness well kept.
