4. Food Storage Table
All storage times given in the table below are intended to be
used
as a guide only
. Storage times of fruits and vegetables
depend on the quality of the food. Individual cases may vary.
Packaged fruits and vegetables are consumed until expiration.

Important
The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise,
basilica, watercress, vinegar, assorted spices, ginger, garlic,
onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.) changes
and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a
long period of time. Therefore, add small amounts of spices to
food to be frozen, or the desired spice should be added after
the food has thawed
The storage time of food is dependent on the type of oil
used. Suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter.
Unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups/
tupperware and other food should be frozen in plastic folios
or bags.
The table below is a quick guide to show you the most
efficient way to store the major food groups in your freezer
compartment.
