Answer:

Depending on the type of food, you'll need to store it in the fridge, freezer or in containers you keep in cupboards or on shelves. When storing food, it's important to keep food safe so that's it still safe to eat or cook. However, all foods have limits on their storage time and staff should always follow storage instructions and be aware of “use by” dates. In particular, staff must make sure that they always store foods:

  • in the right place
  • at the right temperature
  • for the right time.

The following storage guidelines should be followed.

  • To avoid cross-contamination, store raw foods away from other foods in the fridge, especially cooked foods and ready-to-eat foods (such as salads, fruit, cooked meats, cheeses, bread and sandwiches).
  • Store raw meat/poultry in clean sealed containers on the bottom shelf of the fridge, so it cannot touch or drip onto other food.
  • Store foods in separate covered containers whenever possible.
  • Cover dishes and other open containers with foil or film.
  • Do not reuse foil or film to wrap other foods.
  • Keep food storage areas dry and cool.
  • Store root vegetables away from other fruit and vegetables and in a dark place.
  • Ensure that all storage cupboards and pantries are pest-free.
  • Do not store food on the floor because this can encourage mice, ants and other pests.
  • After opening packets of dried foods (eg flour, rice and breakfast cereals) reseal them tightly or transfer contents to storage jars.
  • Ensure that storage containers have tightly fitting lids — always wash and allow them to dry thoroughly after use.
  • Do not store food or drinks near cleaning products or other chemicals.
  • All food that looks, tastes or smells off or is past its “use by” date should be thrown away.
