Using the refrigerator efficiently

Storing food correctly

Store food covered or packaged. This will prevent smells or tastes from affecting other foods. It will also keep foods from drying out, and will help prevent cross-contamination of any bacteria. The growth of bacteria, such as salmonella, can be avoided by setting the correct temperature and maintaining good standards of hygiene.

Fruit and vegetables

Fruit and vegetables can be stored loose in the vegetable bins. However, you should bear in mind that some types of vegetables give off a natural gas that speeds up ripening and spoiling. Other fruit and vegetables react strongly to this natural gas, and should not be stored together in the same bin.

Some fruits that produce a large amount of this natural gas are:

Apples, apricots, pears, nectarines, peaches, plums, avocados, and figs.

Some fruits and vegetables that react strongly to this natural gas given off by other fruits and vegetables are:

Kiwis, broccoli, cauliflower, brussel sprouts, mangoes, honeydew melon, apples, apricots, cucumbers, tomatoes, pears, nectarines, and peaches.

Unpackaged meat and produce

Unpackaged meat and produce should be separated. If you plan to store them together, they should be packaged before being placed in the appliance. This helps to prevent contamination.

High-protein foods

Please note that high-protein foods spoil more quickly. This means that shellfish spoils faster than fish, and fish spoils faster than meat.

Meat

Meat should be stored unpackaged (with the wrappers/containers open.) This will cause the surface to dry, which helps control germs and keeps the meat fresher longer. Also, make sure to keep different types of meat in separate containers - they should not come in contact. This will help prevent cross-contamination and spoiling.
