Can I freeze snow peas and sugar snap peas without cooking them first?!


Question:

Can I freeze snow peas and sugar snap peas without cooking them first?

I know that if I steam them I can freeze them. I just picked mine and there are more than I can eat or give away.


Answers:
No, you should blanch them in boiling water for about 2 minutes first then cool them in cold water and drain. After that, pack them into containers, leaving 1/2 inch headspace at the top of the container.

you can send some to me please! i know this doesnt answer your question but yum anyhow.. :)

yes you can.

Well, you could--but you really want to quickly blanch or scald them first to stop the growth of enzymes.

You don't need to cook them thoroughly. Just time how long you blanch them for, and then shock them in ice cold water immediately following for the same amount of time--then you can pop them in the freezer.

well you can but i dont think it'll last long. but you should boil em the n freeze

You can freeze anything witout cookin it first...
