It is of great importance that the meat slaughtered during Eid al-Adha is preserved for a long time by preserving its freshness and also being used in the best way. Experts emphasize that the sharing of meat, as well as the storage conditions, is in line with the spirit of this special day and plays a key role in increasing abundance.
Things to Consider When Storing Meat
To store sacrificial meat correctly, certain steps must be followed:
Resting: Experts strongly recommend that the cut meat should not be consumed immediately, but should first be rested at a suitable temperature. This resting process increases the flavor of the meat and also allows it to be processed more easily.
Portioning and Packaging: It is recommended that the rested meat be divided into suitable portions that can be consumed at once, in clean airtight containers or vacuum bags. In this way, the meat is used completely each time it is thawed, preventing waste and preventing the remaining meat from being re-frozen.
Ice cream: Meats that are divided into portions should be placed in the freezer quickly. Freezing with the flash method helps meat preserve its nutritional value and freshness for a longer period of time. It is important for flavor and safety to thaw frozen meats on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator or in cold water when consumed.
The Power of Sharing and Increasing Abundance
Experts say that in addition to preserving the meat of the sacrifice in the right way, sharing it is also of great importance. The spirit of cooperation and solidarity that underlies the ritual of sacrifice is reinforced by sharing the meat with those in need, neighbors and relatives.
Delivering to Those in Need: The delivery of some of the sacrificial meat to financially disadvantaged families strengthens the social dimension of the holiday and increases social solidarity. This ensures that meat is not just a food item but a tool for love and sharing.
Strengthening Social Bonds: Sharing meat with relatives, neighbors and friends strengthens social ties as part of the holiday tradition. Mutual treats and visits multiply the joy of the holiday.
Increasing Fertility: According to our beliefs, sharing increases abundance. Sharing the meat of the sacrifice provides spiritual satisfaction for both the giver and the receiver, while also contributing to the increase in social welfare.
It should not be forgotten that the best and most fruitful way to preserve the meat of the sacrifice is to share it generously with those in need and your loved ones. This holiday, take care to store the meat correctly and experience the spiritual peace that sharing brings.
