Freezing and storing

food

Purchasing frozen food

Packaging must not be damaged.

Use by the “use by” date.

Temperature in the supermarket

freezer must be -18 °C or lower.

If possible, transport deep-frozen food

in an insulated bag and place

quickly in the freezer compartment.

Note when loading products

Preferably freeze large quantities

of food in the top compartment, where

food freezes particularly quickly

and therefore also gently.

Place the food over the whole area

of the compartments or the frozen

food containers.

Note
Food which is already frozen must not

come into contact with the food which

is to be frozen. If required, move

the frozen food to other frozen food

containers.

Storing frozen food

Insert frozen food container all the way to

ensure unrestricted air circulation.

Freezing fresh food

Freeze fresh and undamaged food only.
To retain the best possible nutritional

value, flavour and colour, vegetables

should be blanched before freezing.

Aubergines, peppers, zucchini and

asparagus do not require blanching.
Literature on freezing and blanching

can be found in bookshops.

Note
Keep food which is to be frozen away

from food which is already frozen.

The following foods are suitable for

freezing:

Cakes and pastries, fish and seafood,

meat, game, poultry, vegetables,

fruit, herbs, eggs without shells, dairy

products such as cheese, butter

and quark, ready meals and leftovers

such as soups, stews, cooked meat

and fish, potato dishes, soufflés and

desserts.

The following foods are not suitable

for freezing:

Types of vegetables, which are usually

consumed raw, such as lettuce

or radishes, eggs in shells, grapes,

whole apples, pears and peaches,

hard-boiled eggs, yoghurt, soured

milk, sour cream, crème fraîche and

mayonnaise.

Packing frozen food

To prevent food from losing its flavour

or drying out, place in airtight containers.
1. Place food in packaging.
2. Remove air.
3. Seal the wrapping.
4. Label packaging with contents

and date of freezing.
