FOOD TECHNOLOGY

Detailed explanation-1: -The freezer temperature should be 0° F (-18° C). Check temperatures periodically.

Detailed explanation-2: -Frozen foods should be stored at –18°C (0°F) or lower. If the temperature rises above –18°C, food can become discoloured and lose vitamin content. Lowering the temperature after it has risen does not correct the damage. Frozen food must be kept at −18°C or lower to maintain its quality.

Detailed explanation-3: -The temperature of a freezer should be set at 0 degrees Fahrenheit so everything stays very cold. A freezer should be cold enough to keep food frozen and preserve it until they are ready to be cooked or reheated.

Detailed explanation-4: -To reduce the risk of bacterial contamination, many foods must be stored in the refrigerator and thus kept below 5 degrees Celsius.
