Over the years, my husband and I have had a lovely repo freezer, not automatic defrost, frequently filled with hand picked berries, broths, soups, spaghetti sauce, cuts of meat (Homemade sausage, half a lamb, organic chickens), nuts, flours, and ice cream. I defrost annually and fill it up again. This year I was introduced to “Freeze Fresh” the ultimate guide to preserving fruit and vegetables by Crystal Schmidt, creator of whole-fed homestead. I love her guidance for freezing greens. Lightly steamed greens, stuffed into silicone muffin cups, provides useful hockey pucks. The greens seem fresh when thawed. And, Cathy, freezing celery is addressed. My favorite ice cream is vanilla because it opens so many options for accompaniment.
I batch cook so I freeze food for convenience. My favourite ice cream flavour is Caramel Pecan Praline by Booja Booja!
