How to freeze products
... and why it is eco-friendly 🙂
Why?
Starting with the most important - reducing food waste now: summer and early autumn are rich in seasonal vegetables and fruits that often spoil. Thus, freezing them when in surplus will be the best eco-friendly solution to balance freezing 🙂
Another obvious reason is preserving the nutritional value of vegetables and fruits for later consumption: although canned foods are popular, preserved vegetables and fruits often contain excessive sugar or vinegar, therefore frozen vegetables and fruits are much better
Another eco-friendly practice is reducing single-use plastic packaging: all vegetable mixes are sold in single-use plastic packaging, therefore freezing in your own multi-use container will reduce single-use packaging
How to freeze?
Before freezing, wash and dry the vegetables (everyone knows this, right?). Now for some less obvious tips:
- If you want the frozen pieces to be individual, slice the vegetables, arrange the pieces in a single layer on a kitchen board and then place them in the freezer for a couple of hours. Then transfer to your container for freezing 🙂
- Blanching before freezing: it is recommended to blanch some vegetables (dip in boiling water, then cold water) before freezing. This method helps preserve the color, texture, and nutrients of the vegetables before freezing
