14 September 2020
ESL “Extended shelf life” refers to a product created utilising strict cooking/pasteurisation and chilling steps. Combined with specific packaging, it reduces and restricts the further growth of bacteria to provide an extension of the product’s refrigerated life, generally without the need for preservatives.
