There has been a long and persistent debate among eaters about whether or not it is possible to freeze sausages and salami.
Experts gave a clear answer, which may surprise some.
According to them, the named products can be frozen. This extends their shelf life.
But there are important nuances in this matter. They must be taken into account.
For example, the quality of the product should be taken into account.
Thus, frozen products can lose their taste.
This phenomenon is especially observed in cooked sausages.
Look at the packaging: before freezing, make sure that the product is securely packaged to prevent weathering and contact with air.
Experts recommend using airtight bags or containers for freezing.
The shelf life of the product is also important: cooked sausages and hot dogs are best stored for one to two months at a temperature below -18 degrees.
Smoked and semi-smoked products can be stored at the same temperature for up to six months.
As for defrosting, it is better to do it gradually and in the refrigerator, rather than at room temperature (to preserve texture and taste).
