What’s in my freezer? 15 May 2008 9:04 am
Posted by Tracy in : events, not even vegetarian, food storage, pictures , add a commentSo Chez Us asked a good question a little more than a week ago, and a day or two after that I finally got around to taking a picture of the contents of my freezer, and a day or two after that I got distracted by this little trip to the East Coast. (New York City, by the way, is still made of awesome.) While I was easily able to name three things without looking for the Vegan MoFo survey a while back, listing the full contents of my freezer is difficult even when I’m staring it cold in the face. Now, for my amusement (and hopefully yours as well) I’m going to attempt to respond to that very good question from all the way across the country, just by looking at those week-or-so-old pictures. Here goes!
Ask TracyFood: Freezing cilantro? 9 January 2008 12:25 pm

I bought a bunch of cilantro and used like 1/3 of it and I don’t want the rest to go bad but there’s really not a lot I’m planning for it right now. Can I freeze it, and how would I do that best?
Ask TracyFood: storing basil for the winter 26 September 2007 11:59 am

Dear Tracy, the queen of food,
Winter came quickly this year. My basil plant was flourishing all summer, and now it’s starting to die (silly temperate climate. In CA, it lived all year long). Sure, I could dry the leaves. But could I freeze them
and continue to use them as fresh basil in recipes?
