Tips for keeping food perfect in the fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats to avoid
bacterial transfer. Keep raw meat on a plate large enough to collect juices
and cover it with cling film or foil.
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the fridge, ensuring all parts of the
fridge are kept cool.
Wrap up food
To prevent the transfer of flavours or loss of moisture, food items should be
covered and/or packed separately. Fruit and vegetables need not
be wrapped.
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the fridge. This will
help to stop the internal temperature of the fridge from rising.
Shut the door
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you open the
door. When returning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in the fridge
before opening the door. Only open the door to put food in or take it out.
Where to store your foods in the fridge
Cool area
This is where to store foods that will keep longer if they are kept cool, such as:
milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices or hard cheeses (e.g. Cheddar), opened jars
and bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams, fats (e.g. butter, margarine,
low-fat spreads cooking fats and lard.
