Most people blanch it. Then, have ice & water in the sink and put the corn in it. This cools it off fast. You can freeze it right away. Otherwise it might take a half hour to cool. The reason for waiting isn't "for the corn to cool" (it wouldn't hurt the corn to go into the freezer while it's hot) it's to protect your other items in the freezer from being exposed to the heat.
Blanch the zucchini (immerse in boiling water for 3 minutes then remove and plunge into a bowl of ice water until cool), after removing from the ice water transfer zucchini to a colander to drain. Pack loosely in freezer bags, lay flat in freezer, and freeze.
Cut it to the size you want, blanch it then shock it let it cool, dry it off then put in air tight bags.
No, just put it in the freezer
because you left them in the freezer. let them thaw before trying to eat them.
Yes, but it is best to cool down food fast before storing it in the freezer.Putting hot food in the freezer will thaw a little of the freezer and make the freezer work harder to freeze the hot food.
You should never put hot things in a fridge or freezer as this will damage the cooling mechanism of the appliance . All foods to be placed in a fridge or freezer must be left to cool down at room temperature before being stored.
Place the food in air tight containers. You can also use freezer bags or freezer paper. Cool hot foods down fast with an ice bath. This will help to freeze foods safely.
yes you can freeze it! Cool first in refrigerator so it does not have large molecules of moisture that crystalize into freezer burn. Use high quality freezer ware and leave room for expansion. Also double or even triple wrap in freezer paper and freezer bags. Thaw in refrigerator and eat within 6 months.
yes, cool them first and wrap them air tight. Yes. I wrap mine in plastic wrap or put them in bags. They stay good for about 2 months in the freezer.
The Freezer.
The room will cool if you open the freezer and leave it open.
My fridge and freezer.
