Blanching is a great way to preserve your veggies through the winter. It is also a great way to make sure the veggies in your fridge do not go bad when you have too many to eat in one week. Blanching is usually done for leafy greens, so we like to chop them up and freeze in our ice cube trays.
Check out this video on how to freeze your veggies quickly and easily.
Materials you will need for blanching:
