Freezer storage refers to the practice of keeping food and other perishable items at very low temperatures, typically below 0°F (-18°C). This method slows down the growth of bacteria and preserves the quality of food for longer periods. Common items stored in freezers include meats, vegetables, fruits, and prepared meals. To ensure optimal freezer storage, it is important to use airtight containers or freezer bags to prevent freezer burn. Labeling items with dates helps keep track of freshness. Regularly checking the temperature of the freezer, ideally set at 0°F, is also essential for maintaining food safety and quality.
