Hygienic Food Storage Tips

Video Transcript

Hello, my name is Dr. Susan Jewell and on behalf of expert village I am going to talk to you about how to recognize and how to reduce the risk of getting food poisoning. Here, we have several items that you can recognize, that are very commonly available in the supermarket and grocery stores. Now, here we have cling film or plastic wrap and this is a very important item to have, because you could use this very often, and what you do is, you get a piece of plastic wrap and you could seal in the freshness and maintain the overall nutritional value in the food in the bowl, the leftovers before you put in the fridge, It also is very good it will keep out the odors from the other items in the food, in the fridge itself. So, that's plastic wrap. The other things I recommend that you have available is, for example, here's wax paper, wax paper is good, because you can use this for, avoiding freezer burns in food, when you're storing food in the freezer for a long months for a period of time. Other things of course is the storage bag. Storage bags that have sealants on the top, particularly the ones that you can zip, like a zip lock that totally won't open or bust open in the freezer. So, zip lock bags, storage bags are good to use. And aluminum foil, of course aluminum foil when you're doing baking, when you're cooking or even left over foods is a fantastic way to store food, to put in the refrigerator or to put in the freezer. So, these are some of the items that are readily available, it's not expensive that you can buy in your local grocery stores.
