5.1. How to Freeze
Fresh Foods
• Foods to be frozen must be divided
into portions according to a size to
be consumed, and frozen in separate
packages. In this way, all the food
should be prevented from being re-
frozen by thawing.
• In order to protect the nutritional
value, the aroma and the color of the
foods as much as possible, vegetables
should be boiled for a short period
of time before freezing. (Boiling is
not necessary for foods such as
cucumber, parsley.) Cooking time of
the vegetables frozen in this way is
shortened by 1/3 than that of the fresh
vegetables.
• To extend the storage times of frozen
foods, boiled vegetables must first
be filtered and then hermetically
packaged as in the all types of foods.
• Foods should not be placed in the
freezer compartment without package.
• The packaging material of the food
to be stored should be air-tight, thick
and durable and should not deform
with cold and humidity. Otherwise,
the food that is hardened by freezing
might pierce the package. Sealing the
package well is also important in terms
of securely storing the food.
The following packaging types are
suitable for use to freeze the food:
Polyethylene bag, aluminum foil, plastic
foil, vacuum bags and cold-resistant
storage containers with caps.
The use of the following types of
packaging is not recommended to freeze
the food;
Packaging paper, parchment paper,
cellophane (gelatin paper), garbage bag,
used bags and shopping bags.
• Hot foods should not be placed in the
freezer compartment without cooling.
• When placing unfrozen fresh foods in
the freezer compartment, please note
that it does not contact with frozen
foods. Cool-pack (PCM) can be placed to
the rack immediately below the quick
freezer rack for preventing them from
being getting warm.
• During the freezing time (24 hours) do
not place other food to the freezer.
• Place your foods to the freezing shelves
or racks by spreading them so that they
will not be cramped (it is recommended
that the packaging does not come into
contact with each other).
• Frozen foods must be immediately
consumed in a short period of time
after defrosting and must never be
frozen again.
• Do not block the ventilation holes by
putting your frozen foods in front of the
ventilation holes located on the back
surface.
• We recommend you to attach a label
onto the package and write the name
of the foods in the package and the
freezing time.
