           Food security, as defined by the United Nations' Committee on World Food Security, is the condition in which all people, at all times, have physical, social and economic access to sufficient safe and nutritious food that meets their dietary needs and food preferences for an active and healthy life (UN, 2000). Food processing is a principal factor affecting food security. Processing foods is a fundamental method for prevention of losses following harvest and to bond the gap between seasons; it is also crucial to maximizing utilization of the harvest, particularly during droughts and periods of poor production. In the early day of traditional food processing is aimed to maintain the supple wholesome with preservation aspects. Nowadays, food processing still has the main objective of preservation with a longer shelf life and also providing a safe nutritious diet in order to maintain health benefit aspects, particularly the generation of health-conscious consumer, have become gradually important.
         Sustainability has become to be realized as of extraordinary importance. Development and innovation are of course important but considering sustainability is also necessary to be taken into account. Nowadays, consumer's demand is focusing on high quality and long shelf life of food products. However, energy utilization is also needed to be considered according to food sustainability aspects. One of the examples of sustainability of food processing is frozen preservation. Frozen preservation of food is an application of frozen temperature for food storage. Low-temperature storage generally greatly suppresses food deterioration due to little changes in physical, chemical and biological properties of foods. Lower storage temperature, however, requires more energy and generate more environmental load that should be prevented for achieving sustainability. Contrarily, if the storage temperature is too high, the energy consumption will be reduced but the shelf life is shortened and food loss or food waste can be increased that should be also prevented to achieve sustainability. In many cases, food quality and environmental load have trade-off connection, therefore, a study on an optimal condition to achieve both the high food quality and sustainability is still necessary. It has become the most important concern for food scientists and food engineers facing a disruptive change in daily life.
