I Can Freeze That?

How to Freeze Eggs, Milk and Other Unexpected Foods

Has a good sale or harvest left you with more food than you can use now? No need to let it go to waste. Here are instructions for freezing some foods you may have never thought of freezing:

Apples: Freeze whole or chopped, peeled or unpeeled.

Bananas: Freeze in peel. Then, simply thaw and peel to use in smoothies and breads. Note: the peel will turn black, but that won't effect the quality of the banana at all.

Butter: Store in its original container. Thaw in the refrigerator to use.

Celery: Wash and chop to desired size. Then, flash freeze on a tray, and transfer to a freezer bag or another air-tight container. To use: add the frozen celery directly to soups or other heated dishes.

Eggs: Mix the yolks and egg whites together, and pour into an ice cube tray. Two cubes are the equivalent of one large egg.

Fresh Herbs: Chop finely. Then, place in an ice cube tray along with a small amount of water. To use: simply drop frozen cubes directly into heated dishes.

Milk: Store in its original container, but pour out enough milk to allow for expansion – approximately a cup per gallon of milk. Thaw in the refrigerator, and shake well before using.

Nuts: Freeze (either in shell or shelled) in a freezer bag or another air-tight container.

Tomatoes: Wash thoroughly. Then, freeze whole and unpeeled on a tray. Transfer to freezer bags once fully frozen.

Zucchini and Other Squash: Wash and chop to desired size. Then, blanch for three minutes; allow to cool; and freeze in an air-tight container.
