Water Chestnuts

I have some tinned water chestnuts left over from last night - could I freeze them. It was 80p for a small tin - so don't really want to waste them!

    Yes, you can freeze them. I always do. As you say, they are expensive! They do make all the difference to a stir fry.

    I also freeze leftover tinned bamboo shoots.
    They are decanted into a lock and lock container and I leave the liquid in.
