Freezing vegetables - practical tips

Vegetable preparation and freezing

Before freezing, vegetables pre-washing, peeling, de-seeding, and cleaning from other inedible parts. Some large vegetables (for example, cabbage, beets, carrots, and others) cutting into slices, rounds- to speed up freezing and ease to subsequent eating. Sometimes, pre-prepared vegetables subjected to process of blanching - to destroy enzymes, which in the future can to contribute oxidative processes, darkening of the finished product and additional tastes. Then packaged in small (250-1000 grams) boxes of thin-waxed cardboard with a parchment, cellophane, polyethylene or other moisture-impermeable material in a box and frozen in boxes. Faster freezing in bulk, followed by packaging in frozen form, is also often used.

Almost all types of vegetables can be frozen (except for radishes, lettuce, and some others). Vegetables usually frozen in their natural form (individual vegetables or mixtures thereof, soup sets, etc., sometimes a small amount of ascorbic acid is added, which helps to preserve their natural color, since ascorbic acid has an antioxidant effect.

Storage rules for frozen vegetables

Frozen vegetables are a delicate product that requires strict observance of the temperature regime of storage: the product should be thawed for the first time only directly during its preparation.

The shelf life of frozen vegetables and mixtures at temperatures not higher than -18°C, up to 12 months (depending on the type of product).

Improper storage conditions for frozen vegetables, improper temperature in refrigerators allows the product to thaw, then freeze again, killing a significant part of the vitamins and reducing the valuable characteristics of the product. In addition, pathogenic bacteria can settle in improperly stored and repeatedly thawed vegetables and cause severe poisoning when eaten.

The package with frozen vegetables should not look wrinkled, it should slightly inflated, which proves its tightness. The package should not be fogged up or with crystals of snow on the surface - these are signs of thawing and repeated freezing, there are much less vitamins in such frozen vegetables.
