Freezer compartment
Freezing fresh food
Freeze only fresh and undamaged food.
Food which is boiled, fried or baked is more suitable for
freezing than food which is raw.
Before freezing food, make preparations appropriate to
the food in order to retain the best possible nutritional
value, flavour and colour:
▯
Vegetables: wash, chop, blanch.
▯
Fruit: wash, pit and perhaps peel, possibly add
sugar or ascorbic acid solution.
Information on how to do this can be found in the
relevant literature.

Defrosting frozen food
The defrosting method must be adjusted to the food and
application in order to retain the best possible product
quality.
Defrosting methods:
▯
In the refrigerator compartment (especially suitable
for animal-based foods such as fish, meat, cheese,
quark)

In the microwave (food for immediate consumption
or immediate preparation)
▯
