FREEZING & STORING FROZEN FOODS

The freezer section is designed for storage of com-

merclallv frozen foods and for freezrng foods at home.

Packaging -The secret of successful freezing is in the packaging. The wrap you use must be air, mois- ture and vapor proof. The way you close and seal the package must not allow air, moisture or vapors in or out. Packaging done in any other way could cause

food odor and taste transfer throughout the refrigerator

Rigid polyethylene (plastic) containers with tight-

fitting lids, straight-sided canning/freezing jars, heavy-duty aluminum foil, plastic-coated paper and

non-permeable plastic wraps (such as Saran] are

recommended. Note: Heat-sealed boiling bags are easy to use and can be used by themselves or as carton liners.

Sealing-Whensealing foods In bags squeeze out the air [liquids need headspace to allow for expansion.] Twist the top and turn it back. Fasten tie securely around the doubled-over tail Put the label Inside transparent bags; use self-adhesive label on outside of opaque ones.

Air-tight wrapping calls for “drugstore” wrap. Cut the sheet about one-third longer than the distance around the food Bring the ends together and fold in (toward the food) at least twice to seal out air. Crease ends close to food, press air from package. Fold tips

over twice. finish package and tape closed. NOTE’ With unboned meats. pad sharp edges with extra wrap or use stockinette to protect the wrap from punctures.

DO NOT USE:

l Bread wrappers

l Non-polyethylene plastic containers l Containers without tight lids

l Waxed paper

l Wax-coated freezer wrap

l Thin, semi-permeable wrap

None of these are totally moisture, air or vapor proof. The use of these wrappings could cause food odor and taste transfer.

Freezing Fruits - Select ripe, blemrsh-free fruits. Be sure they taste as good as they look. Wash 2 to 3 quarts (liters] at a time and drain. Fruit that stands in water may lose food value and become, soggy. Sort, peel, trim, pit and slice as needed.

Pack in rigid wide-mouthed containers or other

recommended material. Leave head space to al- low liquids to expand during freezrng.
