Frozen cheese

bubbles22222, Jul 13, 6:46am
Is that still ok to use. I packed away the groceries the other night and threw my frozen stuff still in a bag in the freezer then yesterday couldn't find my cheese :) and find it in the freezer . Would it be ok? Is it best for cooking? Would it still be ok to eat as is when defrosted? Any ideas thanks

It will be as good as gold, but probably crumbly. I often freeze a block of cheese

I buy big blocks of cheese when its on special, grate it in my food processor and freeze it. It never fully freezes so I can just take out what I need and put the rest back in the freezer.

Yea grated's way better, I only freeze a solid block if I'm too lazy to grate it

I buy blue cheese and brie when on special and freeze. Perfect when defrosted.

do this also, its brilliant, keep a bag inside in fridge freezer and one outside in garage freezer that way I never run out.

I buy everything on special and freeze it.

Swiss butchers sausages for example can be reduced from $9 to $3.50 for 2 because the next day they will be out of date - buy all packs that are reduced and freeze and enjoy a "real" sausages made of just meat rather than soybeans, grains, flavourings, colourings and preservatives and maybe 20% of meat - which is most likely mutton (hence the need for flavourings).

Buy the smoked salmon shavings down to $3 from $9.90 because they only have another day to go and freeze them.

Etc.

Me too.
It's common sense, huh? I don't need to, but I just can't help myself.
