@ChristinaCircleGavenda yes and no. How is that for helpful?

Seriously, the faster they freeze the less watery they will be, so that is also completely dependent on the temperature of your freezer. Freezing them spread out does increase their freeze time, but it also prevents them from clumping which makes portioning for a recipe easier.

Does it make much of a difference flash freezing over throwing them chopped in a zipper baggy and freezing that way? I have always just thrown them in a baggy and they’re fine though a bit watery. Will they be less watery when cooked if flash frozen?

To Chris, Mr. Organic. Take a look at what is happinging in Europe right now with the organic krap, with emphisis on krap. Organic in not all it is not cracked up to be. My guess is that Chris is from the left coast.

Make sure you buy organic bells if you can because they are on the top of the list of veggies high in pesticides. Of course with all the radiation and other things raining down on us from the tragedy in Japan, I don't know if 'organic' will mean anything anymore. Our media and government are not telling us anything near the truth about the amount of radiation we are being exposed to, especially when it rains or snows. Here is a true real forecast of the trajectory from the radiation in the planets jetstream: http://www.atmos.umd.edu/~tcanty/hysplit/ Stay out of the rain if you can! Make sure your iodine levels are normal because if they are low (which most people's are!) supplement them because if you don't, your body will absorb all the radioactive iodine to make up for it. Even if the levels of radioactive fallout are considered low-med, we will still the results in the next 1-5 years with a huge spike in cancer rates.

Sounds too easy to be true, but it is. They won't be any good in salads or other uncooked dishes, but they're great in recipes that are to be cooked. You won't have to cook them as long as if y ou were using fresh.

Are you saying that you just wash and dry and then slice and put on a cookie sheet and put that in the freezer? that sounds too easy

That's my question too, Ginny…did you try? If so, how did they come out when you went to use them later?
