Page 22

English

•Leafy vegetables should be washed and drained and then stored in plastic bags or containers in crisper with high humidity setting.

•Hot food should be allowed to cool before storing in the refrigerator. This will prevent unnecessary energy use.

•Fresh seafood should be used the same day as purchased.

•When storing meats in the fresh food section, keep in the original packaging or rewrap as necessary. Follow the suggestions below for safe storage:

• Chicken	1-2 Days
• Ground Beef	1-2 Days
• Cold Cuts	3-5 Days
• Steak/Roasts	3-5 Days
• Smoked/Cured Meats	7-10 Days
• All others	1-2 Days

If longer periods of storage are required, store immediately in the freezer section.

Frozen Food

•Proper freezer storage requires correct packaging. All foods must be in packages, which do not allow the flow of air or moisture in, or out. Improper storage will result in odor and taste transfer and will result in the drying out of the improperly packaged food.

•Follow package or container instructions for proper storage.

•Packaging Recommendations:

Plastic containers with airtight lids

Heavy-duty aluminum foil

Plastic wrap made from saran film

Self-sealing plastic bags

•Do not refreeze defrosted/thawed foods.

•It is recommended that the freezing date be marked on the packaging.
