-The

secret

of successful

is

in the

packaging.

be

air,

out the

refrigerator

and

drying

of

frozen food.

Rigid

polyethylene

(plastic]

containers

with tight

fitting

lids,

straight-sided

 

canning/freezing

jars,

heavy-duty

aluminum

foil,

plastic-coated

paper

and nonpermeable

plastic

wraps

(made

from a

Saran

film)

are

recommended.
