Detailed explanation-1: -Fact: Hot food can be placed in the refrigerator. Large amounts of food should be divided into small portions and put in shallow containers for quicker cooling in the refrigerator.
Detailed explanation-2: -#4 DON’T Freeze Hot Food Food should be completely cooled before freezing – actually, it is even better if you allow it to fully cool down in the fridge first and then freeze. If you store a bag or container with hot food along with an already frozen one, it might defrost slightly, creating a safety breach.
Detailed explanation-3: -Harmful bacteria can grow in food that is not chilled down as quickly as possible. SAFETY POINT WHY? If you have cooked food that you will not serve immediately, chill it down as quickly as possible and then put it in the fridge. Harmful bacteria can grow in food that is left to chill slowly.
