Not sure if this the right place to ask. Can i freeze large pieces of parsnip for future roast (blanching first) or do they work best cube sized? I like only cutting them half/quarter lengthwise.

joedenise

I'd freeze them however you would normally roast them, so half or quarters will be fine.

Thank you!

I freeze them in quarters too, if I want them smaller a heavy knife will go through them frozen.

Our daughter - she is 50 - has moved in with us to help. Apparently they don't need forensic people at the university at the moment so she thought she'd like some fresh air and we could do with help. She's a star but a bit accident prone so DH has banned her from the chain-saw, and tractor driving.   Housework is also not her forte!!!

So annoying just discovered I've a mouse or two nibbling through some of my stores! I had to throw out 2 packets of part baked bread and two packs of jelly. Its my fault i had a few this time last year and vowed not to put things they could eat through on the bottom shelf.... Humane mouse trap set tonight... Feel kind of yucky they have been climbing around my tins even though I've done a clean....
