Storing frozen food
The deep-freeze
chain
interrupted
on
the
manufacturer
to
your
temperature of the frozen goods must never
exceed -18°C.
For this reason, never purchase goods
– located in frosted, very icy freezers
– stacked above the prescribed mark
– that are partially clumped together (which
is especially easy to tell with berries and
vegetables)
– that exhibit traces of snow and juice.
Transport frozen goods in special boxes
made of polystyrene or in insulation bags.
Observe the storage conditions and times
on the packaging.
Defrosting food
Observe the following basic rules when
defrosting food:
• To defrost food, take it out of the freezer
and allow it to defrost, optimally at room
temperature or in the refrigerator.
• To defrost food quickly, use the defrost
function of your microwave, for
example. Observe the manufacturer
specifications and bear in mind that
defrosting may result in the proliferation
of bacteria and germs.
• Prepare defrosted food as quickly as
possible.
• Dispose of the defrosting liquid.
• If you only wish to defrost part of a
package, remove the part and close the
package again immediately. This
prevents "freezer burn" and reduces the
formation of ice on the remaining food.
• Always defrost meat, poultry and fish
in the refrigerator. Make sure that the
frozen food is not resting in its own
defrosting liquid.
must not be
way
from
the
freezer.
The
Preparing ice cubes
• Fill ¾ of the included ice cube tray with
fresh drinking water and place it
horizontally in the freezer.
The ice cubes are released most easily if
you twist the ice cube tray or hold it
briefly under running water.
