Here are some tips for better preserving food in your refrigerator:

 

Adjust the temperature properly:

The temperature inside the refrigerator should be maintained between 1-4°C (34-40°F) to ensure food freshness. A digital thermostat can help you monitor and adjust the temperature accurately.

Organize food properly:

Storing food in an organized and logical manner helps maintain its freshness and prevents cross-contamination. Place perishable items such as raw meats, poultry, and fish on lower shelves to prevent juices from dripping onto other foods. Store dairy products in the back of the refrigerator, where the temperature is lower and more stable.

Use airtight containers:

Storing food in airtight containers or plastic wraps prevents moisture loss and helps maintain freshness. Additionally, containers prevent odors from mixing among different foods.

Avoid overloading the refrigerator:

Avoid overloading the refrigerator as it can hinder the circulation of cold air and create hot spots. Make sure there is enough space between food items to allow for proper air circulation.

Do not store hot food:

Before placing food in the refrigerator, ensure it has cooled down to room temperature. Placing hot food directly in the refrigerator raises the internal temperature and can affect the freshness of other foods.

Check expiration dates:

Keep track of the expiration dates of food items to avoid consuming expired food. Organize food items so that the oldest ones are at the front to be consumed first.

Clean regularly:

Clean your refrigerator regularly to prevent the buildup of bacteria and unpleasant odors. Remove expired or spoiled food and disinfect the interior surfaces with a water and vinegar solution.

Prevent the entry of warm air:

Make sure the refrigerator door is properly closed at all times. Avoid leaving it open for extended periods and ensure that the door seal is in good condition to prevent the entry of warm air.

By following these tips, you can better preserve your food in the refrigerator and maintain its freshness for a longer period of time.
