  • Ooh yes, I have taken advantage of this offer. So far we have eaten 2, frozen 2 and have another 2 in the fridge for Christmas breakfast.

    Yum!

    Yes, I freeze smoked salmon when it's on offer and it's fine.
    I always try to have a frozen pack of "offcuts" for a quick meal, with pasta, scrambled egg, or made into a mousse

    I do this because smoked salmon is both healthy and a comfort food: a rare combination

    My traditional Christmas breakfast is pork tomato sausage and black pudding sandwiches (on granary bread with brown sauce of course).

    I bought a chunk of black pudding (sliced from the big pudding, not the sausage sort) yesterday and I've got too much.

    I just wondered if it's possible to freeze it for a short time - say for a week or so.

    Thanks - and Merry Christmas everybody.
  • I freeze black pudding all the time and its fine. However, that is from the deli in the supermarket. If its from a local deli or butchers, maybe its worth phoning them to make sure.

    We buy the large ones in Costco.

    Slice and freeze them, no problem.
    I used to be indecisive but now I am not sure.
