My first blog:
Sick of your vegetables going off before you get a chance to use them!
I was, so I went researching to find a way to save myself some money from having to replace these items every shopping day, while watching my money go down the drain.
So here is what I have done: You need to have a pot with hot water, and a pot with cold water, for things like carrots, and capsicum you need to do a process called blanching before freezing this is to kill the enzymes in the food. So for diced to sliced you put in hot water for 2 mins then cold water for 2 mins then put into a ziplock bag to freeze them. Onions you can just dice or slice and put straight into ziplock bag and freeze.
Carrots cans be frozen for up to 9 months
Onions for up to 6 months
Capsicum up to 12 months.
I will keep you all informed with more vegetables as I learn myself.
