In today's busy life, not everyone can afford to go to the market to buy food to cook every day, but instead housewives often stock up for the whole week. Fresh meat and fish are perishable foods if we leave them at room temperature, if we want to keep them for a long time, we must freeze them. Today we will bring you the easiest and most effective way to preserve frozen foods to keep them fresh and retain their nutrients.
WHAT FOODS NEED TO BE FROZEN?
Freezing keeps food fresh for several days. However, it also has certain disadvantages such as losing a part of nutrients and freshness if left for too long. Therefore, we should only freeze certain foods:
– Red meat: pork, beef, …. These are the main daily sources of protein and are easily broken down.
- Sea food.
- Types of unsalted butter, cheese.
For vegetables, we should only keep them in the refrigerator and use them as soon as possible to get all the vitamins and keep their freshness
REASONABLE, ACCURATE STORAGE TEMPERATURES
Storage temperature is the most important factor in determining whether a frozen product can be stored in the best environment. At 4 degrees Celsius, the bacteria have stopped working, the water begins to freeze, but if you want to preserve it for a long time, you need to lower the refrigerator temperature. Normally frozen meat can be stored for 3 months at -18 degrees Celsius.
HOW TO STORAGE FROZEN FOOD
To keep fish meat fresh for a long time and not spoil, you should take the following steps:
First of all, we need to wash food many times with clean water to remove mucus and do not share fresh and raw foods with cooked foods.
Next, you should store food in food containers with lids or zippered plastic bags so that the food retains its flavor and avoids the smell of other foods. It is necessary to divide certain positions in the cabinet for different types of food, to avoid letting them flow to other types.
HOW TO Defrost FOOD?
Defrosting frozen food is quite time consuming and causes us many difficulties. Each type of food has a different defrosting process. The correct way to defrost is that you should slowly put the food down in the refrigerator to let them thaw gradually, then take it out. In case you need to defrost quickly, you can put the product in a plastic bag with a tight seal or use a zipper, soak in plain water (note that hot water should not be used as it will cause nutrients to be lost. ) and change the water every 30 minutes until the food is completely softened as desired.
