Helpful hints and tips
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process, here are some important
hints:
y the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the
rating plate; y the freezing process takes 24 hours. No further food to be
frozen should be added during this period; y only freeze top quality, fresh
and thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs; y prepare food in small portions to enable
it to be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it possible
subsequently to thaw only the quantity required; y wrap up the food in
aluminium foil or polythene and make sure that the packages are airtight; y do
not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food which is already frozen, thus
avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter; y lean foods store better and longer than fatty
ones; salt reduces the storage life of food; y water ices, if consumed
immediately after removal from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause
the skin to be freeze burnt; y it is advisable to show the freezing in date on
each individual pack to enable you removal from the
freezer compartment, can possibly cause the skin to be freeze burnt; y it is
advisable to show the freezing in date on each individual pack to enable you
to keep tab of the
storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
To obtain the best performance from this appliance, you should: make sure that
the commercially frozen foodstuffs were adequately stored by the retailer; be
sure that frozen foodstuffs are transferred from the food store to the freezer
in the shortest possible time; not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary. Once defrosted, food deteriorates rapidly
