FREEZING & STORING FROZEN FOODS

The freezer section is designed for storage of

commercially frozen foods and for freezing foods at home.

Packaging -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

vapor

in or out. Packaging

 

done in any other way

could cause food odor and taste transferthrough-

out

the

refrigerator

and

drying

of

frozen

food.

 

Rigid

 

polyethylene

 

[plastic)

containers

 

with

tightfitting

lids, straight-sided

 

 

canning/freezing

 

jars,

heavy-duty

aluminum

foil,

plastic-coated

 

pa-

per

and

nonpermeable

plastic

wraps

(made

from

a Saran

film)

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 rend tape closed. NOTE: With unboned meats, pad sharp edges with extra wrap or use stockinette to pm- tect me wrap from punctures.

DO NOT USE:

l Bread wrappers

l Non-polyethylene plastic containers l Containers without tight lids

0 Waxed paper

0 Waxed-coated freezer wrap l Thin, semi-permeable wrap

None of these are totally moisture, air or vapor proof. The use of these wrapplngs could cause food odor and taste transfer and dry- Ing of frozen food.

Freezing Fruits - Select ripe, blemish-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 allow liquids to expand during freezing.
