Summer heralds heat,
mangoes, watermelon and ice creams and holidays.
I do not know about you but I am busy emptying the
freezer to make space there. Space for ice cream and so I do wonder where I
should keep all the dry fruits, chocolates etc. The girls are of course are
ecstatic most of them are in their tummies especially the chocolates.
There are still lots more on the hit list. First are
the frozen strawberries.
Yes in the month of December when we went to Pachgani,
Mahableshwar I had brought strawberries which ended up in the freezer.
How? It’s very simple. So simple that I was sure that
the method was a mistake and the shopkeeper was “Lambi lambi chod raha hai”!!
But I still brought the strawberries thinking I could
always make puree.
Back home I was a curious and I Googled the poor
fellow was right with my sincere apologies to him I post the method
of freezing strawberries.
The strawberries have to be just sliced thin.
Spread on a foil in a single layer and freeze them for about an
hour.
The frozen slices are very easy to handle
transfer them to a container or a ziplock bag. Let them reside in your freezer
as long as you can hoard them.
It’s now that they are all getting used up after 4
months.
I had all the stages from full strawberries to slices
to frozen chips in pictures but I when the computer was reformatted I have lost
them all.
Sorry about that I will update the pictures next year.
