Rospotrebnadzor published on Wednesday, April 28, recommendations on the choice of cottage cheese eggs and Easter cakes.
“When choosing, pay attention to the production date, shelf life and storage conditions, information about the manufacturer. Store perishable food in the refrigerator, and separately from raw food, ”the text says.
In addition, ready meals should not be stored in a warm place, as this increases the risk of the emergence and multiplication of microorganisms.
So, when buying eggs, you need to pay attention to the date of their sorting, as well as the appearance. They must be smooth, of the correct shape, color, and the shell must be free of damage, feathers, blood or bird droppings.
You need to store eggs only in the refrigerator, and their shelf life in a boiled state is no more than 36 hours.
When choosing cottage cheese, you should give preference to a white product with a creamy tint and a slightly sour smell. Some whey may be present in low-fat curd. In general, the consistency should be soft, smooth and slightly oily.
When buying a cake, the main thing to pay attention to is its top – it must be dry. If it gets wet, then the product may be spoiled. In addition, there should be no burnt places and voids on the coulis.
On April 27, analysts found that on the eve of Easter, Russians began to purchase baking dishes, home decor and kitchen tools more often.
