Freezing and storing food
28
–Freezing the maximum amount of
food (see data plate)
Remove the lowest freezer drawer.
Place the frozen goods flat on the
bottom of the appliance or in contact
with the interior cabinet side walls, so
that it freezes through to the core as
quickly as possible.
Once frozen:
Place the frozen goods in the freezer
drawer and push it back in.
Storage time for frozen food
The storage life of food is very variable,
even at a constant temperature of
-18°C. Decomposition processes also
take place in frozen food, albeit at a
very reduced speed. For example, fat
can become rancid from contact with
oxygen in the air. This is why lean meat
can be stored approx. twice as long as
fatty meat.
The storage times quoted are guide val-
ues for the storage life of different food
groups in the freezer zone.
Food group Storage

Ice cream 2to6
Bread, baked goods 2to6
Cheese 2to4
Fish, oily 1to2
Fish, lean 1to5

For standard freezing results, follow the
advice on packaging.
By keeping the freezer zone at a con-
stant temperature of -18°C and taking
appropriate hygiene measures you can
maximise the storage life of your food
and avoid food waste.
