Before placing food in the freezer
^
When freezing more than 2 kg of
fresh food, switch on the Super
-
Freeze function for some time before
placing the food in the freezer (see
"SuperFreeze").
This also helps to prevent food that is
already in the freezer from starting to
defrost.
Placing food in the freezer
Food to be frozen can be placed
anywhere in the freezer.
Place large quantities of food in the
large freezer basket.
Please follow the guidelines in the table
below regarding recommended
weights for the baskets:

^
Place the food flat in the bottom of
the basket so that it freezes through
to the core as quickly as possible.
^
Make sure that the packaging and
containers are dry to prevent them
sticking together when frozen.
When freezing, make sure that food
already frozen does not come into
contact with fresh food being frozen
as this could cause the frozen food
to begin to defrost.
Defrosting
Frozen food can be defrosted in
different ways:
–
in a microwave oven,
–
in an oven using the "Fan" or
"Defrost" setting,
–
at room temperature,
–
in the refrigerator (the cold given off
by the frozen food helps to keep the
other food cold),
–
in a steam oven.
Poultry It is particularly important to
observe food hygiene rules when
defrosting poultry. Do not use the liquid
from defrosted poultry. Pour it away
and wash the container it was in, the
sink and your hands. Danger of
salmonella poisoning.
Fruit should be defrosted at room
temperature in its packaging, or in a
covered bowl.
Most vegetables can be cooked while
still frozen. Just put straight into boiling
water or hot fat. The cooking time is
slightly less than that of fresh
vegetables due to changes in the cell
structure.
Never re-freeze partially or fully
defrosted food. Consume defrosted
food as soon as possible as it will
lose its nutritional value and spoil if
left for too long. Defrosted food may
only be re-frozen after it has been
cooked.
