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 carefullv to keen, moisture in and air out

Freezer burn can result If food is not properly wrapped. When this happens, food dehydrates and is of poor quality.

1.Cut sheet of wrapping material about one- third longer than distance around food to be wrapped. Place wrapping sheet on flat sur- face with food in center of sheet.

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

3. Crease ends close to food to eliminate air

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

Use heavy-duty aluminum freezer foil, kraft pa- per with cellophane bonded to it, special freezer bags, jars, cartons and freezer sealing tape for packaging your food items. You’ll find them at the supermarket or freezer dealer.
