    Hi Yorkshirelass,

    Fish works in the same way as meat. If it's been frozen raw then it's fine to defrost cook and re-freeze (once). I often do this when making fish pie.

    Can you freeze toasted sandwiches?

    Made too many cheese and onion ones and don't want to waste them

    Thanks

    I reckon they'd go a bit soggy on defrosting.
    Mama read so much about the dangers of drinking alcohol and eating chocolate that she immediately gave up reading.

  • Thanks to everyone for the advice about my fish! I did a bit of research and decided it would be fine so I cut it into pieces, dipped it in egg and breadcrumbs then baked it. It has now gone back in the freezer and I am sure once reheated thoroughly it will do as a supper for someone!

    Can I freeze tinned mushroom slices and if I can should I drain them first ?

    if you have some mushrooms slices left over - then I would put in a container of water and keep them in fridge for a couple of days until I could use them.
    I havent attempted to freeze them errata, I usually use the tin full. but dont see why you couldnt.

    Hi errata

    I'm not a fan of mushrooms but I would hazard a guess you could freeze them no problem. I would freeze without liquid. Why not freeze a couple of slices tonight and then take them out tomorrow and see what they're fit for?

    let us know how you get on:)

    I'll merge this with freezing quick questions later
    thanks

    Right - I'm going to freeze them drained and see what happens. If they're rubbish I've only lost 22p and if they're ok I'll have saved 22p. Very MSE :rotfl:

    You could be even more daring and carrry out a controlled experiment ! Half drained half not - then you can only waste 11p hopefully !:rotfl: Or of course both may be fine......! x
