• Top Tips for Home Freezing:Open freeze berries such as strawberries, raspberries etc. on a flat tray then store in labelled bags.
• Stew apples and stone fruit and store in bags ready for crumbles and pies.
• Remember that green vegetables such as runner beans must be blanched before freezing. Dry on kitchen paper and pack into boxes or bags.
• Chop herbs and mix with water to freeze in ice cube trays. Just drop the whole cube into a sauce or stew – or even a cold drink.
• Courgettes, cucumbers, lettuce and other vegetables that contain a lot of water do not freeze well. Turn tomatoes into sauce or passata to freeze.
• Carrots and root vegetables can be cooked and pureed for freezing.
• Make one, freeze one is a great way to get ahead – especially with chilli, pasta sauces, and soups.
• With back up in the freezer, you’ll never be stuck for a mid-week meal.
