Frozen Storage Keeps Food Safe
Freezing food is a great way to extend its shelf life, ensure its freshness, and maintain its nutrient density. Here are a few interesting facts to keep in mind if you are looking for a facility that specializes in frozen storage.
Shelf Life
Just about any food can be frozen to extend its shelf life, excluding eggs in shells. That said, there are certain foods that can be frozen but don’t necessarily thaw well. In general, when it comes to meat items, raw meat freezes better than cooked meat.
Frozen Storage Helps With Freshness
By freezing food to 0 degrees, bacteria, mold, and other potentially harmful contaminants in the food are killed. Unfortunately, once thawed, the food can still contain these contaminants if not properly handled. That’s why it’s important to ensure that you follow professional standards both before and after freezing commercial foods.
Nutrient Density
The final benefit of freezing food is maintaining nutrient density. That means frozen foods are capable of maintaining their nutrients and minerals. For example, rather than allowing seasonal fresh fruits and vegetables to go bad, proper preparation, processing, and freezing can significantly extend their shelf life. Once frozen in convenient packaging, be it single-serve or commercial sizing, nutrient-rich produce items are ready to provide their rich dietary value and health benefits anywhere at any time.
