As the heat of summer sets in, we start focusing on our freezers.We open the door and linger a few seconds longer than necessary.Not great for energy consumption, true, but it has led tocontemplation about the best way to use this essential kitchenasset.
Your freezer is a true friend for reducing food costs. Space islimited, so make it count. Clear out those freezer-burned buns andthe ice-cream cartons with only one spoonful remaining. Replacethese with normally expensive foods that you bought at arock-bottom sale price.
Basically, freeze protein.
Meat, seafood and cheese send the cash register into overdrive, andsupermarkets frequently offer "super-sales" or "buy one, get one"deals on frozen shrimp, shredded cheese and family-size packages ofground beef and chicken. To benefit from these bargains, you needto stock up and store the bounty.
A couple of hints:
--Set the freezer temperature to 0 degrees for optimum storage.
--Freeze your cheese. Unopened packages of already-shreddedcheeses, crumbled feta and crumbled blue cheese freeze best. Bangthe frozen bag on the countertop, and you easily can scoop outportions. Frozen cheese holds for months, but we've noticed molddeveloping in the refrigerator surprisingly fast. Shredded cheesethaws quickly, and there's no discernible difference when cooking.
