Preserving the Harvest - Freezing

Freezing! 

 

Following up with my last post on Preserving the Harvest...today's post is about Freezing. 

Freezing is easy...but since the invention of  the Vacuum Sealer, it's gotten a lot better. 

Below are simple steps ( and helpful links) to freezing with a vacuum sealer. 

1. Choose your Fruit or Veggie and slice/prepare to freeze, to your liking. 

2. Select a freezer bag size that will hold the amount you wish to freeze, and start stuffing it with your produce. ( Don't over stuff! )

3. Now take your vacuum sealer and begin sealing. ( Follow your sealer's guide for this step.) 

4.  You should now have a tightly sealed bag of produce that's ready for the freezer. :) 

P.S for those of you who prefer not to use a vacuum sealer..follow steps 1-2 and freeze.
