Don,
What have you found to be the best way to freeze apple slices for later
cooking? I have frozen them in gallon Ziploc bags in enough water so that
all the air can be squeezed out while zipping the bag. Is there a better
way?
Thanks
Jim

Jim:

We don't freeze freshly cut apple slices. For best preservation quality, they have to be steamed for at least 3-5 minutes, preferably with a little sugar to further enhance keeping ability, since sugar is a natural preservative. You might describe our apple slices as 1/3 cooked applesauce. Then, as you mention, get all the air out of the bags that you can. They will keep for 18 months in a deepfreeze.
