What is Food Processing?
Food Processing - is a method that involves the
process of treating and handling food to stop or
slow down the spoilage and to allow for longer
storage.
Example: Fish preservation : Drying , Salting ,
Smoking , Canning , Freezing
Tools, Equipment and Utensils in
Food (fish) Production
Freezer and Refrigerator
It is used to slow down the
spoilage of food, keeping the
raw materials fresh for a
certain period of time.
THE COMMON PROBLEMS IN USING A
FREEZER AND REFRIGERATOR:
 Freezer isn’t cold enough –the temperature is not
set well suited to the food placed inside.
Temperature should depend on the type of food
being stored, semi perishable foods require normal
temperature or low, while perishable food like fish
and meat requires a higher temperature to avoid
spoilage and maintain its freshness.
THE COMMON PROBLEMS IN USING A
FREEZER AND REFRIGERATOR:
Build up of ice in the freezer- Ice can
rapidly build up if you leave the door
open for too long. The presence of air
inside the freezer will result in frost and
ice build-up. To avoid this, do not open
the door longer. Keep the door close.
THE COMMON PROBLEMS IN USING A
FREEZER AND REFRIGERATOR:
Unwanted frost – Unwanted frost is due to a
faulty seal. To avoid this clean the seal around
the inside of the freezer door with soap, warm
water and a wash cloth. Dry the seal and the
surrounding area using a towel and close the
freezer. If this does not work, install a new
gasket.
