Freezing food in your freezer

To wrap foods:

temperature, it may be loaded with frozen food.

When you plan to freeze unfrozen food, see the following chart for the amount to freeze at one time.

These amounts are based on USDA recom-

mendations. If too many packages of un- frozen food are packed at one time into the freezer, the rate of freezing is too slow. Poor quality products result.

1.Cut sheet of wrapping material about one- third longer than distance around food to

be wrapped. Place wrapping sheet on flat surface with food in center of sheet.

2.Bring front and back of wrapping to- gether and fold in toward food, making at least two one inch (2.5 cm] folds until food fits tightly against wrapping.

3.Crease ends close to food to eliminate air pockets.

Packaging and Sealing Food...

Airtight packaging is important in freezing foods. Containers and wrappings should be

moisture and vapor-proof and packages should be sealed carefully to keep moisture in and air out.

Freezer burn can result if food is not prop- erly wrapped. When this happens food de- hydrates and is of poor quality.

4.Press all air from package. Fold each end over twice. Make sure fold is tight and

fasten against end of package with freezer tape.

Note: When packaging meats that have not been boned, pad sharp edges with extra wrap or use stockinette to protect against tearing or puncturing.

Designed to meet the needs of modern households, these models combine advanced technologies with user-friendly features, providing consumers with quality and convenience.

At the core of both refrigerator models is the advanced cooling technology that ensures optimal food preservation.

The sleek stainless steel finish is resistant to fingerprints, while the integrated handles provide a seamless look.
