Fresh and packaged meat have something in common: they both have an expiration date. So it happens that sometimes we forget it in the fridge and let’s not give it out until sometimes it’s too late<\/strong>. It is in those moments in which a few days have passed since he arrived home but in which it still does not seem past when the happy idea of \u200b\u200bfreezing fresh meat that is about to expire occurs to us. However, is it a good idea? Should we freeze meat that is about to pass its optimal consumption period? Is it biologically safe?<\/p>\n

Although it is advisable to freeze already prepared dishes, instead of risking freezing raw meat about to expire, it is also true that thawed dishes are less pleasing to the palate. And it is that the problem with raw meat about to expire is not that we freeze it before it begins to lose properties, but from defrosting badly (or preparing badly)<\/strong> a meat that is already beginning to be risky to consume.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Broadly speaking, we could say that freezing raw meat about to expire is not convenient, but it is a lesser evil than throwing away food<\/strong>. If we have a four-star freezer, there will be no problem freezing the meat the same day it expires, although some guidelines must be taken into account:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The food in question must be protected in a container or wrapping that does not allow ice to spoil it<\/strong> or that may come into contact with other frozen products. Plastic wrap, a plastic zip or a container where we leave as little air as possible will be the best options.<\/p>\n

In any case, the fundamentals of freezing meat about to expire is in respect defrosting. <\/strong>This must always be in the fridge and ensuring that the product does not come into contact with the juices it releases. You also have to cook it in the shortest possible time.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Freezing does not work miracles, but it does allow the bacteria and microorganisms that rot meat to be temporarily deactivated. Once normal temperature is restored, these microorganisms become dormant again<\/strong>since most food pathogens (salmonella, staphylococci, anisakis…) only die with cooking (and not at any temperature, only from 65 \u00baC).<\/p>\n

In order not to make mistakes, it is advisable to pay attention to the AESAN recommendations for freezing and thawing correctly. In addition, there are also tricks to cook frozen meat directly on the barbecue without having to defrost it first.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The OCU recommendations suggest that frozen meat can be preserved in this state<\/strong> a maximum of twelve months for veal fillets; another year for chicken and turkey; four to six months for pork chops; between three and four months for minced meat, and a maximum of two months for fresh sausages.<\/p>\n
