Preparation
Step 1
Fill a large pan with enough water to cover the veggies. Boil the water. Add veggies; cover; and boil for the time listed.
After boiling, drain & immediately place veggies in ice water (for the same length of time as blanching) to stop the cooking process. Drain and pat them dry with a paper towel, then place veggies single-layer on parchment lined cookie sheet & freeze. Then place in a freezer bag. Lasts up to three months.
