Freezing and storing food
94
Home freezing
Only freeze food that is fresh and in
good condition.
Tips for home freezing
– The following types of food are suit-
able for home freezing:
fresh meat, poultry, game, fish, veg-
etables, herbs, fresh fruit, dairy prod-
ucts, baked goods, leftovers, egg
yolks, egg whites, and a range of pre-
cooked meals.
– The following types of food are not
suitable for freezing:
lettuce, radishes, sour cream, may-
onnaise, whole eggs in their shells,
onions, whole raw apples and pears.
– To retain color, taste, aroma, and vi-
tamin C, vegetables should be
blanched before they are frozen. To
do so, place them portion by portion
into boiling water for 2–3minutes.
Then, remove and plunge the vegeta-
bles into ice-cold water to cool
quickly. Leave the vegetables to
drain.
– Lean meat freezes better than fatty
meat and can be stored for consider-
ably longer.
– Separate chops, steaks, cutlets, etc.
with a sheet of plastic freezer film. to
prevent them from freezing together
in a block.
– Do not season raw food or blanched
vegetables with herbs or salt before
freezing. Cooked food should only be
lightly seasoned. The flavor of some
herbs intensifies when frozen.
– Placing hot food or drink in the
freezer causes food that is already
frozen to partially thaw and increases
energy consumption. Allow hot food
and drink to cool down before plac-
ing it in the freezer.
Packaging food for freezing
Freeze food in portions.
–Suitable packaging
– Plastic films
– Freezer bags
– Aluminum foil
– Freezer containers
–Unsuitable packaging

Remove as much air as possible from
the packaging before sealing.
Close the packaging tightly with
– rubber bands,
– bag clips,
– string or bag ties, or
– freezer tape.
Tip: Freezer bags and poly tubing may
also be sealed using home heat sealing
kits.
Label the packaging with the con-
tents and the date of freezing.
