∙ 10y agoVery hot food items should not be kept in the refrigerator because they may cool off too quickly and cause condensation. Allow the item to cool to room temperature first before putting it in the refrigerator.

Also, food close to the hot food may become semi-warmed, which is not good for preventing food poisoning. Always rapidly cool hot food (cover and place in a draught on the window sill, for instance), and put into the fridge once cold.
