Tips for keeping food perfect in the Fridge
Take extra care with meat and fish
Cooked meats should always be stored on a shelf above raw
meats to avoid bacterial transfer� Keep raw meats on a plate
which is large enough to collect juices and cover it with cling film
or foil�
Leave space around food
This allows cold air to circulate around the Fridge, ensuring all
parts of the Fridge are kept cool�
Wrap up food!
To prevent transfer of flavors and drying out, food should be
separately packed or covered� Fruit and vegetables need not be
wrapped�
Pre-cooked food should be cooled properly
Allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing in the Fridge�
This will help to stop the internal temperature of the Fridge from
rising�
Shut the door!
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the number of times you
open the door� When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be
kept in your Fridge before opening the door� Only open the door
to put food in or take it out�
Where to store your foods in the fridge

cool� Milk, eggs, yogurt, fruit juices, hard cheeses eg� Cheddar�
Opened jars and bottles of salad dressings, sauces and jams� Fats,
