5.2 Storing Frozen Food
Prepacked commercially
frozen food should be stored in
accordance with the frozen food
manufacturer’s instructions for
a
frozen food storage
compartment.
To ensure that the high
quality achieved by the frozen
food manufacturer and the
food retailer is maintained,
the following should be
remembered:
1. Put packets in the free-
zer as quickly as possible
after purchase.
2. Ensure that contents are
labelled and dated.
3. Do not exceed “Use By”,
“Best Before” dates on
the packaging.
If there is a power failure do
not open the door. Frozen food
should not be affected if the
failure lasts for less than 20
hrs. If the failure is longer, then
the food should be checked and
either eaten immediately or
cooked and then re-frozen.
