Home freezer - what can be stored in it and how to use it

this year I didn’t eat minced peppers .. I had to defrost the freezer, I froze a lot of peppers, whole pepper (like a cup)
I defrost it, squeeze the water out, fried it, peeled it off. added garlic and it was like a salad .. very tasty, no different if I cooked with fresh pepper. And I had a red pepper (I like stuffing like that more), but for now it will appear on sale seasonal .. and so, just the period of vitamin deficiency passed unnoticed :)))

Didn't I write about this?

Taya, but she meant that blue ice cream ONLY baked, i.e. to support you.

caviar do you put frozen baked peppers? Can I go to soups? What taste?

wherever you can add sl. pepper.
but I still ice sweet peppers, cut into cubes, and whole for stuffing.
so cut I have this year quickly sold out, a little frost. it's good that there were briquettes of baked. went into the course and borscht, and soups and stews.

I also froze baked peppers. I took red, fleshy, very tasty. If just like that or for a salad. And I froze the remaining juice in ice molds, and then poured it into bags. Added to soups and sauces

Girls, can you freeze nectarines, peaches and apricots? The husband brought a whole box of substandard products from work. They are a little crumpled. We will not eat so much, especially the children of the grandmother. And what is the best way to freeze them?

They tolerate frost well. Then I put it on compotes, jelly, and oatmeal porridge. You can also portray a quick jam.
Only I never defrost it before use, I lay it right in frozen.

Or you can make chips in the dryer - a great treat

Admin, Tatyana, Thank you! I don't have a dryer (((And I jammed the freezer yesterday! Thank you!

Girls, someone said that you can freeze beet tops. It was so?

Harvesting beet tops (Admin)

Tanya, thank you. I bought a young beet, it was with the tops. So I'll clean everything up in the winter.

Irishka, to your health! In winter, boast about cabbage soup or pies

dumplings and manti - I just noticed that if the flour is unimportant, they seem to be cracked.

vooot ... I always have such a problem - frozen dumplings and dumplings crack !!!
when cooking, they fall apart into an incomprehensible fiction ...
at the same time, so to speak, fresh, that is, newly stuck ones behave perfectly.
I want stocks)))
tell me something about this ...
if the problem is in flour - then what to focus on - that in freezing the dough behaved correctly?
and if not in it, then I ask for ideas - what could be the trouble?

tell me something about this ...

The problem is not the flour - the problem is the dough. The dough must be kneaded and rolled out well and correctly, it must also ripen. Moreover, when dumplings and others like them are prepared in stock for the freezer.
I don't have such problems Dumplings, dumplings, noodles (recipes)

I also thought that maybe I freeze them the wrong way (I put them in one row on the board and when it freezes I put them in a bag) or the temperature in the freezer is not the same ... as I understand cracks are the result of the rupture of liquid molecules?
My dough always ripens for 30 minutes under a heated cup ...

Check out my topic at the link how I make the dough

This is how you need to freeze: on a baking sheet in one row, and put the already frozen ones in a bag. It is only advisable not to stuff the bag tightly to the eyeballs, from this product they can also break, they will be with broken edges. I fill the bags so that they are flat, and the dumplings lie freely inside, and so I stack in stacks in the freezer drawer

I just thought now - maybe you don't have to wait until it freezes completely (usually I wait until the next day) - because this way the product is additionally dried by cold. grabbed so as not to stick together and into the bag?

[Jenni]

Jenni, I put in bags and a day after freezing, and after a couple of hours. Products do not crack. I can assume that the reason for your failures in the preparation of the dough. Try to make according to recipes from the forum.

Girls, I have such a question ripe - they treated me to a small amount of wild strawberries, I grinded it with sugar and put this mass into candy tins. Hence the question - leave them in a box in the freezer (I don't really want to) or can I somehow wrap these pieces with something and put them in a bag?

I think you can just put them in a bag! without wrapping anything, will not stick together

Girls, thanks for the advice to sprinkle a little bit of raspberries with sugar before freezing - it turned out superb, everything is so intact, pretty and remained in the package !! The author of the method, show up - the Internet is stupid, thank you for me!

[mowgli]

mowgli, thanks, I will try

Girls! Poke your nose where about freezing spinach parsley dill basil is! I remember reading about freezing and oil and water, but I won't find it !!!!

And I, after reading about making tea from the leaves of garden plants (there is a stage with freezing the leaves), I froze a set of umbrellas of dill, cherries and black currants for salted cucumbers. I liked it, we don't have our own vegetable garden, but everything is at hand, we finish one portion, put the next one. the greens remain fragrant and the cucumbers are tasty

frozen a set of dill, cherry and black currant umbrellas for lightly salted cucumbers

So it is more fragrant and takes up little space in the freezer

Greens, horseradish, garlic for conservation, dried (Admin)

also an interesting way, you must try

Girls, I found a piece of ntnresnuyu, it is a pity that one, I bought in a leopard, the price tag is wild, of course, but cool :-) than to replace it with an adequate one?

Can broccoli be frozen raw? Or do you need to blanch? No time at all (

[shlyk_81]

Frozen raw in vacuum bags. In winter I'll see what happened!

shlyk_81, everything is fine, raw broccoli ice constantly. Only then do not defrost it, immediately frozen and add where necessary.

Girls, what is the best way to freeze blueberries? Puree with sugar or whole? Who loves how?
I would like to reduce the amount of sugar, as usual raw jam 1: 1 I usually make

We bought a chest, so now there is a lot of freezing space :)

I freeze blueberries and blueberries whole, sugar-free in plastic containers. Then I pour it into bags to save space. In winter, I use lean biscuit dough in the filling for pies or twisted through a meat grinder with a small amount of sugar (2-3 teaspoons), we eat it like raw jam.

[what for]

I don't understand at all what for freeze sugar. Why not freeze chopped berries just like that? And then, when defrosting, as needed, add sugar or not. Almost everyone writes, so they twisted the berries with sugar and into the freezer ... What's the point?

[Taia]

Taia,
I add sugar - we often eat such mashed potatoes as popsicles - very tasty

I add a spoon or two, depending on the volume, since after defrosting it is very sour, and so with pancakes, curd is just right.

Sugar gives a certain viscosity. You can easily pick out the puree with a spoon, which you cannot do when the berry is sugar-free - it freezes into a stone.

[GruSha]

GruShafrozen blueberries and blueberries last year like that. Soap, dried on a towel, in a bag, in a container. As soon as it froze, I took it out of the container and left it just in the bag, to save space.

In general, I did this. I froze one part with whole berries, nothing. The second was crushed with sugar 3: 1 and frozen in a container.

I froze all kinds of whole berries, and berries punched with a blender with sugar, and puree (cherry) just without oil cake, which is also like sherbet, perfectly cut with a knife. The rubbed strawberries are already going for coolies, whole red currants for the manna, etc. And I'm putting blueberries on to my favorite curd miracle.

[Marina]

MarinaWhat a miracle curd?

[GruSha]

GruSha, Gulsine is a dessert made of dairy products - cottage cheese, cream, gelatin. It is divided into 2 parts - blueberries (without seeds) are put in one part and laid out like a zebra on a cake of cookies and butter. A win-win option is to take milk of any fat content, and, in principle, any berries (but blueberries are in the original recipe)
I wanted to draw up a recipe and all the time is not enough)))
Who tries asking for a recipe

[Marina]

Marina, Thank you

Girls, good evening. Well, poke me pliz, as you freeze tomato juice from a tomato. I have been sitting for an hour and a half already, searching, but not finding.
Frozen in plastic cups 0.5. How else can you tell me. Thank you.

[ksyushik]

ksyushik, I frozen tomato juice. She inserted a package into the dish and then poured the fruit drink. Then, to save space, you can remove this bag from the container.
But I didn’t like the frozen tomato juice at all, it seemed watery. I don't ice it anymore, it's more convenient for me to pack tomato juice in 0.5 liters. jars with twist.

I also thought so, it's easier to roll up in jars. And take the place in the freezer with something else.

I usually freeze not fruit drinks, but pomace from juice after a manual tomato juicer. Juice in jars, and still very juicy pomace, blender until smooth. It turns out almost a tomato paste in consistency only with the taste of fresh tomatoes. I pack it in tiny bags with a zip lock somewhere in three tablespoons with a mountain and freeze. The cube just comes out at one time. Very convenient and no waste from tomato processing!

I've always thrown away such waste. The last time, after reading our girls, I also wanted to leave and freeze. But she twisted them, touched them, some skins and seeds (my husband always scrolls 2 times through a manual juice press) and threw them out, but this time the hand trembled.
Maybe you really should have put them through a blender
Today I will again make tomato juice, maybe I really will leave it, I will propose and freeze it in small bags. Still, there is a desire to try these pomace in winter, especially after the latest publications of our Lyudochka.

[nila]

nila I blended the seeds and skins separately ... I felt the taste of seeds, I didn't like it at all.
I cook tomato juice until it thickens together with the skin and seeds - for borscht, etc. For more delicate dishes, I cook tomato sauce separately, wipe it and get rid of the skins and seeds.

Such savings - maybe for regions where tomatoes are imported and expensive.
And with us - it makes no sense, it's easier to throw out the seeds and skins. For $ 1, you can buy 5 kg of tomatoes, small and substandard.

Girls, thank you all for the answers.
I like ice cream fruit drink. I'm usually in freezer bags. But this year I did not buy it.
I'm afraid to roll it into jars, I rolled up eggplants in Georgian style, and some of the jars swelled up, I had to sterilize. So I'm afraid that it will be the same with fruit drink ...
