ginger,garlic,onion,mustard,thyme,marjoram,blackpepper,etc.)changesandtheyassumeastrong
tastewhentheyarestoredforalongperiod.Therefore,thefrozenfoodshouldbeaddedlittleamount
ofspicesorthedesiredspiceshouldbeaddedafterthefoodhasbeenthawed.
• Thestorageperiodoffoodisdependentontheoilused.Thesuitableoilsaremargarine,calffat,olive
oilandbutterandtheunsuitableoilsarepeanutoilandpigfat.

foliosorbags.
