Freeze food in small quantities, it freezes faster, takes
less time to thaw and enables you to eat it in the
quantity you need.
Freezing fresh foods
First, estimate the amount of food you will be
freezing. If you are freezing large amounts of fresh
food, remember to turn the control dial to Max. This
will lower the temperature in the Freezer (approx -
30℃), freezing your food quicker and helping to keep
the goodness in. However you should do this
sparingly to conserve energy.
Preparations for freezing
·Leave cooked food to cool completely.
·Chill food in a Fridge before freezing if possible.
·Consider how you want to cook the food before
freezing it.
·Don't freeze food in metal containers as you may
want to microwave it straight from the Freezer.
·Use special Freezer bags available from supermarkets,
Freezer film, polythene bags, plastic containers,
aluminum foil for acidic foods(such as citrus fruits).
Do not use thin cling film or glass. Do not use used
food containers (unless cleaned thoroughly first).
·Exclude as much air from the container as possible.
You could buy a special vacuum pump which sucks
excessive air out of the packaging.
·Leave a small amount of "air space" when freezing
liquids, to allow for expansion.
·You can use the space in the Freezer most efficiently
if you freeze liquids(or solids with liquids, such as
stew) in square blocks.
This is known as "performing" Pour the liquid into a
polythene bag which is inside a square sided
container. Freeze it like this, then remove it from the
container and seal the bag.
