Frozen Food Storage Guide

Storage times will vary according to the quality and type of food, the type of packaging or wrap used (should be airtight and moisture-proof), and the storage temperature. Seal the package or container securely to prevent taste and odor transfer throughout the product. Ice crystals inside a sealed package are normal.

Put no more unfrozen food into the freezer than will freeze within 24 hours (no more than 2 to 3 lbs. of food per cubic foot [907- 1,350 g per 28 L] of freezer space). Leave enough space in the freezer for air to circulate around packages. The freezer door must close tightly. For more information on preparing food for freezing, check a freezer guide or reliable cookbook.
