Refrigerator temperature
It is important to set the refrigerator correctly. The ideal temperature for a refrigerator is 4 degrees Celsius. Bacteria do not have the chance to grow and all food will last longer.
Meat, fish and substitutes
The bottom drawer is very suitable for these three products. The temperature in the bottom drawer is the lowest, which means that products spoil less quickly than in another place in the refrigerator. Make sure that the products are well packaged to prevent cross-contamination. You can also take into account that the back of the drawer is colder than the front.
Drinks
If you have a bottle rack in the fridge, you can store soft drinks and beer there. If not, store them in the middle of the fridge. Juices can be stored in the fridge door.
Dairy
Products such as (buttermilk), yoghurt and custard are stored at the bottom of the refrigerator door. Butter is stored at the top of the refrigerator door, and cheese on the middle shelf. Bread salads can be stored on the top shelf.
Vegetables and fruits
Often there is a vegetable drawer in every refrigerator in which you store vegetables such as broccoli, cauliflower, cut vegetables, leafy vegetables, apples, pears and other types of (soft) fruit. Vegetables such as potatoes, onions, cucumber, peppers, tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant are best stored outside the refrigerator.
Leftovers
It is best to store these in the middle of the refrigerator. The temperature of the refrigerator is not too warm and not too cold. Make sure that you let the food cool down completely before you put it in the refrigerator.
