Leave enough space between foods so that air can circulate freely and nothing spoils.
If you have to put away leftovers from lunch and dinner, make sure they are not still hot first.
To avoid any type of contamination, avoid placing raw and cooked foods close to each other.
Containers must always be clean and hermetically sealed.
Don’t place food near the walls of the refrigerator, as it may stick and, in that case, it would have to be thrown away.
How to store frozen and deep-frozen foods in the freezer
Foods to be frozen and frozen foods, i.e. pre-cooked foods that only need to be heated before being served, should be placed in the freezer.
Once thawed, previously frozen foods must be consumed within 24 hours and cannot be placed back in the freezer.
The ideal freezer temperature is around -20°.
Clean your freezer at least once a month to avoid excessive frost buildup.
Remember not to leave foods in the freezer for more than 3-4 months, especially if they are particularly fatty.
Don’t freeze too many quantities of food at once; use disposable containers instead.
To defrost food without losing its properties, do not leave it at room temperature, but place it in the refrigerator, so that the process occurs slowly.
