How and Where to Keep Foods

Frozen Foods

Place in Super-Freezer directly on freezer shelf or in Meat-Tender. See [page 8] for information on freezing foods.

Milk and Tall Bottles

Store on shelf on either side of Super-Freezer. Put milk in your refrigerator as soon after delivery as possible.

Meats and Poultry

Meats and Poultry to be kept more than a few days, keep best when frozen. See [page 8]. Poultry should be thoroughly washed and dressed, then placed in Meat-Tender. Smoked meats may be kept in the Meat-Tender for as long as two weeks. Fish should always be kept frozen in the Super-Freezer. Meats and Poultry to be kept for short periods may be stored in the Cold Storage Tray.

Regular Foods

Butter, leftovers and other foods subject to drying out, should be stored in covered containers on any convenient shelf. Cheese should be wrapped in waxed paper for short-time storage, or in moisture-vapor-proof material for longer storage. Eggs should never be washed before placing in refrigerator, as this removes their protective coating.

Leafy Vegetables

Trim, discard undesirable portions, wash thoroughly with cold water and store in Hydrator. Lettuce, celery and similar vegetables keep better if stalks and heads are not cut up or portioned. Carrots, radishes, beets, etc., should be trimmed, washed, drained and placed in Hydrator. Tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers should be washed and wiped dry before placing in Hydrator. Asparagus and Brussel sprouts should not be washed until prepared for cooking. They may be placed on any convenient shelf of your refrigerator.

Fruits

Oranges, apples, lemons, grapefruit, grapes, etc., should be stored in the Hydrator.
