Freezing and storing food

Poultry It is particularly important to observe food hygiene rules when defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid from defrosted poultry. Pour it away and wash the container it was in, the sink and your hands.

Fruit should be defrosted at room temperature in its packing or in a covered bowl.

Most vegetables can be cooked while still frozen. Just put straight into boiling water or hot fat. The cooking time is slightly less than that of fresh vegetables.

Never re-freeze partially or fully defrosted food. Consume defrosted food as soon as possible as it will lose its nutritional value and spoil if left for too long. Defrosted food may only be re-frozen after it has been cooked.

Ice cubes

^Press down the release button on the ice cube tray and fill the tray with wa- ter. Any excess will flow out through the outlet.

^Now pull the release button up to seal the ice cube tray. Place the tray on the bottom of one of the freezer drawers.

^Once frozen, use a blunt instrument, for example a spoon handle, to remove the ice tray from the freezer.

^Ice cubes can be removed easily from the tray by holding it under cold running water for a short while.

Cooling drinks

Drinks are best cooled quickly in the refrigerator section using the Super cool function. If bottles are, however, placed in the freezer for rapid cooling, make sure bottles are not left in the freezer for more than one hour, as they could burst.

Freezer tray

The freezer tray is useful for freezing small items such as berries and vegetables. They can be frozen individually and therefore maintain their shape when defrosted.

^Space the food out loosely on the tray.

^Hang the tray in one of the upper freezer drawers.

Leave food for 10 - 12 hours to freeze thoroughly on the tray. Transfer it to a freezer bag or suitable container once frozen. Place the bag or container in the freezer drawer.
