yummy

is that garlic in your freezer?

A comment today from reader M asked if I had garlic in my freezer. And the answer, “Yes. Yes I do!” In fact, I also have Dorot’s basil and cilantro as well!  Basically it’s a tray full of 20 cubed pre-portioned herbs that you keep in the freezer and just pop out when you need them! I can’t tell you how many times I’ve been in need of garlic only to realize I used the last clove the day before… but with these I never have to worry anymore! And the containers are super small and stackable, so it makes keeping them a snap!

I happen to buy mine at Trader Joe’s, but check out your frozen food section at the grocery store and see if they happen to carry them! :)

    my mom keeps ziploc baggies of minced garlic cloves. she just buys a whole lot of garlic and minces and freezes them herself…but she has the extra space with the garage freezer. but i will say it’s sooooo convenient. i’m so doing the same.

    That’s my question! :) haha…thanks for dedicating a post to it!

    These are great ideas…I always thought you weren’t supposed to keep garlic in your freezer (but now, come to think of it, I have no idea where I heard it from, nor can I think of a reason why you shouldn’t!) so I will have to try it. Those herbs seem very convenient too!
