Do you live alone and only remember to go shopping when the last fresh drink in the fridge is finished? Do you have a large family and you no longer know how to stock up on supplies to meet everyone’s needs?

How to organise the perfect fridge: a practical guide

Whether your fridge is half-empty or full is not important, what matters is that you store food correctly so as to avoid the formation of mould and bacteria and not risk having to throw away compromised food.

Even if set at the ideal of 4°C, the temperature of your refrigerator will not be homogeneous: it’s colder at the bottom and warmer at the top.

How to arrange food in the fridge

Place your eggs, cheeses, yoghurt, sweets and jams in the upper area (around 8°C). Use the intermediate zone (about 4-5° C) for cold cuts, cooked vegetables, sauces, cooked foods, leftovers and, in general, anything that says “keep refrigerated after opening”. Put the most delicate foods on the lowest shelf (from 2 to 4°C): fresh fish and meat. 

The drawers at the bottom (around 10°C) are intended for fruit and vegetables: temperatures that are too cold could actually damage them. To keep them fresher longer, line the bottom with kitchen towels or paper towels. They will absorb excess moisture and slow down the deterioration process. 

The compartments inside the door (up to 10-15°C) can be used for drinks, sauces, butter, milk and eggs in their special container. 

There you have it – the perfect refrigerator! Easy, right?
