    Yes, I cook a gammon joint once a month, freeze it in sliced portions and use for sandwiches throughout the month. Much cheaper than the hand carved packs of ham in Mr T's.

    Right, I've searched - but can't find anything. Corned Beef Hash - if I made this could I freeze it succesfully :confused: Thank you Oracles :A
    Squares knitted for my throw ~ 90 (yes!!! I have finally finished it :rotfl: )
    Squares made for my patchwork quilt ~ 80 (only the "actual" quilting to do now :rotfl:)

    Hi Somo1,

    I've never made corned beef hash so I don't know, but according to this post you can.

    Donner smell it first. If it smells ok it will be fine to freeze and reuse.

    It should be OK. See here:-

    Creme fraiche based sauces - ok to freeze?

    I'll also move your post to our Quick Questions on Freezing thread.

    Hi

    Just a quick question. I've just found enough stale ish bread at the bottom of the bread bin to make 2 bread puddings. Never made one before but thought I'd be all old style and waste not want not.

    But would I be able to freeze one once it's cooked?
