FREEZING & STORING FROZEN FOODS

The freezer section is designed for storage of corn- merclally frozen foods and for freezing foods at home.

Packaglng - The secret of successful freezing is

in the packaging. The wrap you use must be air, moisture and vapor proof. The way you close and seal the package must not allow air, moisture or vapors in or out.

Rigid polyethylene [plastic] containers with tight-

fitting lids, straight-sided conning/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-When sealing 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 inslde transparent bags, use self-adhesive label on outside of opaque ones
