❶ 对于完整的西瓜,食用前用冷水清洗,去除泥土和残留,再用干净的布或纸巾擦拭干净。
For whole watermelons, run cold water over watermelon. Wipe the outside to remove any dirt or residue and pat with a clean, dry towel or paper towels.
❷ 对于市面上预切的或包装好的西瓜,选择冷藏或置于冰块中的产品。
When buying pre-cut or packaged watermelon, choose only those refrigerated or surrounded by ice.
❸ 切瓜时,用专用切水果的干净的刀和砧板,尤其不能用切过生肉的刀直接切西瓜。
Cut watermelons with clean knives.
❹ 常温储存勿超3小时。高温环境下,无论是否贴保鲜膜,6小时左右就会滋生大量细菌,3小时以内细菌滋生量少,最好现切现吃。
Don't let watermelon pieces sit out at room temperature for longer than three hours.
❺ 包上保鲜膜:保鲜膜能够把西瓜和冰箱中的其他食物隔离开,避免二次污染,并及时放冰箱。
For cut watermelons, wrap tightly in plastic, or in an airtight container and refrigerate.
❻ 别隔天:西瓜在冰箱里的冷藏时间,最好不要超过12小时,最长不要超过24小时。
To be eaten within 24 hours (the sooner you eat it, the better!)
❼ 不让冰箱成为细菌的“天堂”,将冷藏室进行分区,生熟食物分开存放。最好能一个月清洗一次冰箱。
Keep fresh produce separate from raw meat, poultry, and seafood products.
