I Believe That Many People Will Stock Up on Food Materials. for Convenience, They Will Also Prepare Food Materials in Advance. Different Types of Food Have Different Storage Methods, and Some Are Even Inconvenient to Store. Please Pay Attention. Then, How Should We Store These Foods Scientifically?

1. Staple Food

Rice, Pasta, Oil, Dried Fruit, Vermicelli, Etc. Should Be Packed in Clean and Dry Containers, and Placed in a Cool, Ventilated, and Dry Place Indoors, Avoiding High Temperature and Light.

Some Cooked Staple Foods Such As Steamed Buns, Sesame Seed Cakes, Bread, Etc., Should Be Placed in Fresh-keeping Bags and Refrigerated in the Refrigerator. if They Exceed 2 Days, They Should Be Sealed and Frozen.

Quick-frozen Food Should Be Kept Frozen. if the Package is Damaged or Opened, Seal It Well to Avoid Drying or Fat Oxidation.

2. Meat

Fresh Meat Can Be Kept Refrigerated if It is Eaten on the Same Day After Purchase. Otherwise, It Needs to Be Cut into Small Portions and Stored Separately, and Try to Avoid Repeated Thawing.

Cooked Meat Products Can Be Stored in a Crisper for Two or Three Days, While Cured Meat and Sausages Can Be Stored in a Dry and Cool Place Outside the Refrigerator. Raw Meat Needs to Be Packaged in Advance into a Quantity That Can Be Eaten at One Time and Placed in the Freezer.

 

To Thaw, Take out Overnight and Store in the Refrigerator. in This Way, the Loss of Nutrients Can Be Avoided, the Reproduction of Microorganisms Can Be Reduced, and Food Safety Can Be Improved; the Thawing Can Be Kept Uniform, and the Taste and Texture Can Be Maintained.

3. Vegetables

Vitamin C and Active Substances Contained in Vegetables Are Easily Decomposed. the Higher the Storage Temperature, the Faster the Decomposition Rate. Putting in the Refrigerator Can Delay the Degradation Rate of Vitamins. Vegetables Should Be Stored in a Refrigerated Environment, and the Time Should Not Exceed One Week; It is Recommended Not to Buy Too Much at One Time, Especially Green Leafy Vegetables. It is Best to Eat the Purchased Amount within 2-3 Days.

For Vegetables Such As Onions, Potatoes, Taro, Sweet Potatoes, Lotus Root, and Burdock, It is Easy to Keep Them in a Cool Place Indoors Away from Light. the Refrigerator is Often Not the Best Place to Store Them. It Will Be Better Stored in a Cool, Backlit Place. if These Ingredients Are Kept in the Refrigerator, They Will Easily Become Perishable Due to the Moisture in the Refrigerator.

4. Fruits

Fruits Such As Apples and Pears Can Be Stored in the Refrigerator or in a Cool Place Indoors. Careful People Will Find That Tropical Fruits Such As Dragon Fruit, Banana, Mango and Papaya Are More Likely to Turn Black and Rot Once They Are Put in the Refrigerator. in Fact, the Most Suitable Temperature for These Fruits is About 12°c, As Long As They Are Placed in a Cool, Ventilated and Dry Place, They Do Not Need to Be Stored in the Refrigerator. if Stored in Cold Storage, It Should Not Be Too Long, It is Prone to Frostbite. During Storage, Pay Attention to Pick out Moldy and Rotten Food in Time to Avoid Expanding Pollution.

5. Fresh Aquatic Products

It is Recommended to Buy and Eat Now.

Buy Dried Aquatic Products, Such As Dried Shrimps, Dried Cuttlefish, Etc., Which Can Be Refrigerated; Chilled Products, Such As Hairtail, Small Yellow Croaker, Etc., Can Be Frozen.

6. the Shelf Life of Fresh Eggs is Greatly Affected by Temperature. They Can Be Stored in the Refrigerator for 40-60 Days, but Be Careful Not to Wash Them with Water Before Refrigeration to Avoid Damage to the Pores and Cause Deterioration; if They Are Placed in a Cool Place Indoors and the Temperature Does Not Exceed 15°c , the Storage Period is About 30 Days.

7. Fresh Soy Food

Freshly Made Tofu, Soy Milk and Other Soy Products in the Market Should Be Eaten on the Same Day. if the Soy Products Are Sour, and the Surface of Tofu, Dried Tofu, Etc. is Very Sticky or Inelastic, It Means That It Has Deteriorated and Cannot Be Eaten.

 

Finally, when You Can’t Finish the Meal, Such As Homemade Food, Vegetables and Fruits, Cakes, Leftovers, Etc., You Should Use Storage Containers with Snap Lids or Food Bags, Seal Them, Store Them in the Refrigerator, and Eat Them As Soon As Possible. Available at https://www.folomie.com/
