An essential part of Ramadan preparations is organizing and maintaining a clean refrigerator; this will help preserve Food longer and maintain health and hygiene during fasting. If you are wondering “What is the best way to organize your fridge?” Here are valuable tips on effectively organizing your refrigerator and ensuring your Food remains fresh throughout Ramadan.
A clean refrigerator is the cornerstone of kitchen hygiene and an essential practice for Ramadan. Therefore, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends comprehensive steps to ensure your fridge remains spotless and safe:
Fridge organization begins by inspecting for recalled or spoiled Food. If you find any, dispose of it immediately by placing it in a sealed bag in the garbage (this includes any food stored with or touching the recalled item).
Remove all items from your refrigerator to clean every surface, then take out shelving, drawers, and any other removable parts.
Use hot, soapy water to meticulously wash shelving, drawers, and all removable parts. Once washed, dry them with a clean towel before returning them to the refrigerator.
With the shelves removed, wipe the interior with hot, soapy water and follow up with a clean water rinse to remove any soap residue. Ensure the interior is dry before replacing the shelves and items.
After cleaning, use a solution of 1 tablespoon of liquid bleach in 1 gallon of water to sanitize the surfaces and kill any lingering bacteria.
If any recalled food was stored in reusable containers, wash these thoroughly with hot, soapy water before using them again.
Be cautious not to leave perishable foods out for more than two hours; this is especially important during Ramadan when you prepare the meals ahead of time.
Remember to clean the insides of the doors and any drawers that cannot be removed; these areas can harbor bacteria and spills just as easily as the main compartment.
Before returning food and drink containers to the fridge, wipe them down with hot, soapy water to remove any residues.
Proper organization of raw foods in your refrigerator helps keep them fresh and prevents cross-contamination, especially during Ramadan! So.. What is the correct storage order in a refrigerator?
The lower shelves in your fridge are cooler, making them ideal for certain foods, such as:
● Ready-To-Eat Snacks
● Pre-cooked Food, such as Iftar and Suhoor leftovers
● Bread
● Fruits and Vegetables; only if no drawers were available
Drawers are designed to store specific types of food under optimal conditions, such as:
● Meat and Poultry Drawer
● Produce Drawers/Crispers
● Cheese & Butter
The door is the warmest part of the fridge, making it suitable for items that are less sensitive to temperature fluctuations, such as:
● Condiments and Preserves
● Pickled Products
Maximizing the space in your refrigerator is essential, especially during Ramadan when you're likely to have a variety of foods that need to be stored efficiently.
