Answers:
Blanche (lightly boil) in water to cover,for two minutes, drain and chill under cold water in colander cool, bag and freeze!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
Trim the ends, slice French style if desired, or leave whole!.
Plunge them into boiling water to blanche briefly, not cook!.
Remove with slotted spoon & plunge them into cold water!.
Then drain & place on cookie sheet in freezer to harden!.
When slightly frozen, place in zip-loc freezer bags!.
This way they are not cooked but sterilized (don't handle)!.
When you need them, they won't be stuck together!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
