Rospotrebnadzor reminds you how to choose the right products for Maslenitsa. For many holiday dishes, pancakes, dumplings, cheesecakes, pies with and without filling, the common product is flour. The following processes lead to flour spoilage: rancidity, souring, mold, development of insects and mites, and caking. The molding of flour is accompanied by the formation of a specific musty odor. Souring of flour is characterized by the appearance of a specific sour taste and smell in it, and is most often caused by a violation of temperature and humidity during its storage. When storing flour, it is very important to comply with the conditions specified by the manufacturer on the label. Be sure to sift the flour before kneading the dough, this will enrich it with oxygen and also prevent the possible entry of flour pests into the culinary product.
When choosing cottage cheese and sour cream You need to pay attention to their storage conditions and labeling. The storage temperature should not be higher than +6°C. Cottage cheese and sour cream should contain nothing but milk and sourdough. You should not buy dairy products that have expired: they accumulate microorganisms and their toxins that can cause food poisoning, and heat treatment does not always remove them from the finished product.
Will they fit? frozen berries for the filling it is very easy to evaluate in the store: the berries should not be stuck together into one icy piece — this indicates repeated defrosting and freezing of the product during storage, which leads to microbiological spoilage of the berries and loss of moisture, along with which vitamins are lost. If berries are sold in self-service mode, microorganisms released by sneezing and coughing, as well as those carried by dirty hands when picking berries yourself, may come directly onto the berries.
When choosing meat It is important not to buy it from random people, in places of unauthorized trade, or from cars along the roads. In these cases, there is a risk of purchasing meat from sick or dead animals. We remind you that any meat dishes must be subjected to sufficient heat treatment to rid it of microflora that causes intestinal infections, such as salmonellosis, dysentery and parasite larvae, such as pork and bovine tapeworms, echinococcus, which cause severe parasitic diseases.
