HEALTH AND SAFETY GUIDELINES

Because of consumer demand, preservatives have been removed from many pre-prepared foods. This

together with the changes in shopping habits to a once-a-week shop, mean that safe handling and

storage of food is even more important than ever.

The following tips should help you to ensure that the food in your home is in as perfect condition as

possible.

¥ Keep the freezer door closed as much as possible.

¥ Do not push food together too much, try to allow air

to circulate around each item.

¥ Cool cooked food as quickly as possible but do

NOT place in the freezer until cool. (Leave food in a

place as cool as possible in order that it can then be

placed in the refrigerator as soon as possible).

¥ Do not store food uncovered.

¥ The best way to defrost food is to put it in the refrig-

erator to thaw slowly.

¥ Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated and

labelled and used in date order to ensure that food

is consumed at its best.

¥ It is important that food is used before its "best

before" date.

¥ Always wash your hands with soapy water and dry

them with a clean towel before handling food.

¥ Keep work surfaces clean and avoid cross contam-

ination by not using the same work surface or knife,

without washing them thoroughly in between.

¥ The foods to be frozen must be fresh and of the

best quality.

¥ The size of each pack should be small enough to

ensure that it is used in one go. Small packs freeze

more quickly and uniformly and give better results.

¥ Frozen food, once thawed, must not be refrozen.

Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty food,

salt reduces the storage time.

¥ Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing

bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and pro-

vide an airtight seal.

¥ Packaging which is swollen or has traces of

refrozen water droplets on the pack could indicate

that the product has not been kept at a suitable tem-

perature and that it may have lost its original quali-

ty. Partially thawed food must not be refrozen, it

must be consumed within 24 hours. Never exceed

the storage time indicated.

¥ Never place hot food, bottles or cans of fizzy drink

in the freezer as they may explode. Containers with

a lid must not be filled to the brim.

¥ Do not open the door or place extra fresh food in the

freezer next to food which is already frozen as this

could cause the temperature of the frozen food to

rise and its quality and storage life to reduce.
