Dairy foods and eggs
x Most pre-packed dairy foods have a
recommended ‘use by /best before/best
by/’ date stamped on them. Store them in
the ƌĞĨƌŝŐĞƌĂƚŽƌ compartment and use
withinthe recommended time.
x Butter can become tainted by strong
smelling foods so it is best stored in a
sealed container.
x Eggs can be stored in the ƌĞĨƌŝŐĞƌĂƚŽƌ
compartment.
Red meat
x Place fresh red meat on a plate and
loosely cover with waxed paper, plastic
wrap or foil.
x Store cooked and raw meat on separate
plates. This will prevent any juice lost
from the raw meat from contaminating
the cooked product.
Poultry
x Fresh whole birds should be rinsed inside
and out with cold running water, dried
and placed on a plate. Cover loosely with
plastic wrap or foil.
x Poultry pieces should also be stored this
way. Whole poultry should never be
stuffed until just before cooking,
otherwise food poisoning may result.
