How to Make Freezing Broccoli And Cauliflower
- Wash 1 large head of broccoli and 1 large head of cauliflower thoroughly and remove any damaged leaves.
- Cut the broccoli into florets and the cauliflower into smaller florets or bite-sized pieces.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli and cauliflower and blanch for 3 minutes.
- Immediately transfer the blanched vegetables to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Drain the vegetables thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
- Spread the broccoli and cauliflower in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This allows for even freezing and prevents clumping.
- Freeze the vegetables for at least 2 hours, or until solid.
- Once frozen, transfer the vegetables to freezer-safe bags or containers, removing as much air as possible. Label with the date.
- Store in the freezer for up to 12 months.
