  • Freezing carrots - to blanch or not to blanch

    Following on from a recent thread in which the advice given was not to blanch French green beans, what about carrots? I'm thinking of freezing them in slices and batons (not mixed). Do I need to blanch them first?

    Just about all the advice on the web says yes but I guess you lose a lot of flavour in the water, just like with French beans.

    So, to blanch or not to blanch? And does it make a difference to how long I can keep them in the freezer?

    I don't blanch but find them best vacuum packed or they tend to get a bit spongy

      ^Just got myself a vacuum sealer. So I can do that. Brilliant. Thanks, GL.
