Sometimes some people have to deal with an extremely unpleasant situation: food in the refrigerator spoils at an incredible speed.

Many people begin to doubt the serviceability of their equipment, but in most cases this is not the reason.

The fact is that sometimes we violate the storage conditions of products and don’t even notice it, says Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on culinary issues for the online publication BelNovosti.

What secrets are worth knowing?

Purity

In order for the food in the refrigerator to remain fresh as long as possible, it is extremely important to maintain cleanliness. We carry out high-quality washing at least once a week.

You can use vinegar or baking soda.

Temperature

In order to ensure proper storage conditions, you need to know exactly what temperature is in your refrigerator. Optimally, the indicator should be at least four degrees.

This will reduce the chances of bacteria to actively multiply.

Filling capacity
