    Hi RootyTooty,

    Yes, salami freezes well, just make sure to freeze it in portions that you will use in one go as it can't be re-frozen once you've defrosted it.

    i often freeze whoopsied salami for use on piza, in pasta exta. i put in loose in a sandwich bag all seperated, then once frozen, tidy it up into a stack. that way it takes up less room but is easy to take out only as much as you need. oh, it never freezes totally solid but dont worry.

    So glad I found this old thread as I have bought an "end" of a salami from Me T this morning for the grand some of.... 2p! Was on the reduced shelf so will be splitting this into portions for the freezer tonight. I love these forums.

    Salami is a preserved meat so it may not need freezing anyway. It might go a bit dry, but otherwise I keep mine in the fridge.

    It's a very handy standby to have around. Apart from pizza, it's great cubed and fried to add to soups, on salad, in stews and all sorts of things that need a little flavour lift. If I do a remoska baked chicken I'll usually chuck some cubed salami in. There are some great bargains on full salamis in Lidl usually too.
