Before putting hot foods into the refrigerator, first let cool until they reach room
temperature. Foods stored in the refrigerator should be cleaned and the water
drops patted off after cleaning. Before foods are put into it the refrigerator to be
stored, it is recommended that the foods should be pressurized, so that the water
cannot vaporize, fruits and the vegetables can keep fresh, and the smells of the
foods will not mix together. Stored foods can be marked in bags. Store the
foods independently according to the different kinds of foods. Daily eaten foods
should be stored in the front of the shelf. Try avoiding frequent door openings
as it reduces food shelf life. When storing food in the fresh food section make
adequate space for air flow circulation. This helps maintain the shelf life of the
food. When you store the foods, you should make sure that the foods stored in
the refrigerator are not too close to the liner to avoid foods freezing on the back
or side walls of the refrigerator.
It is suggested for radishes and other root vegetables to trim the leaves before
storage. This keeps nutrients in the root so the leaves do not absorb them. Put
the refrigerated foods into the fresh food area to let them defrost. The low
temperature of the refrigerated foods reduces the formation of bacteria and
extends food life. Some foods like onions, garlic, bananas, and root vegetables
are better stored at room temperature than in the fridge. Melon, pineapples, and
bananas can go directly into the freezer after preparing if storing over longer
period.
• The freezer is suitable for storing food for a long time. The temperature inside
the freezer is low (between -2 and 8 degrees F). It keeps foods fresh for a
long period of time. Frozen foods should be wrapped and marked when
stored to track storage time period.
