Tip of the day

Freezing Dairy Products

So I got a call from a close friend the other day wanting to know what to do with a nice block of Parmesan that was about to expire and headed for the bin. Stop! Freeze it, I exclaimed!!!

Yes, dairy items are freezable, the consistency will change but then use it for baking. Old yogurt, milk and sour cream can be frozen and used in cakes, old hard cheese can be grated, frozen and removed a handful at a time for pasta or salad, and cheese like mozzarella or cheddar when frozen, crumble beautifully when thawed making them easy to use on pizza, macaroni and cheese or whatever pleases you!

Less waste equals more savings, and who doesn't need that.
