Freezing and storing food
62
Home freezing
Before placing food in the freezer
When freezing more than 4.4 lb (2 kg)
of fresh food, switch on the Super-
Freeze function
for 6 hours before
placing the food in the freezer.
When freezing even larger amounts of
food, switch on the SuperFreeze
function
for 24 hours before plac-
ing the food in the freezer.
This helps frozen food which is already
stored in the freezer to stay frozen.
Only freeze food that is fresh and in
good condition.
Please note that some food is not suit-
able for freezing. These include, for
example, vegetables that are usually
eaten raw, such as lettuce or radishes.
Tip:
To retain color, taste, aroma, and
vitamin C, vegetables should be
blanched before they are frozen. To do
so, place them portion by portion into
boiling water for 2–3 minutes. Then, re-
move and plunge the vegetables into
ice-cold water to cool quickly. Leave
the vegetables to drain.
Packaging food for freezing
Freeze food in portions.
Tip:
Use suitable packaging to avoid
freezer burn (such as freezer contain-
ers).
Expel as much air as possible from
the packaging and close it tightly.
Label the packaging with the con-
tents and the date of freezing.
Placing food in the freezer
Risk of damage due to heavy
loads.
Loading food which is too heavy can
cause damage to the freezer draw-
ers/glass shelves.
Do not exceed the relevant maximum
load:
Freezer drawer = 26 Ib (12 kg)
Glass shelf = 77 lb (35 kg)
Unfrozen food should not touch
frozen food as this will cause the
frozen food to begin to thaw.
To prevent food sticking together
when frozen, make sure that the
packaging and containers are dry.
To ensure that food freezes through to
the core quickly, do not exceed the
following packaging and container
sizes:
- fruit and vegetables:
max. 2.2 lb (1 kg)
- meat: max. 5.5 lb (2.5 kg)
