Kako zamrznuti i odmrznuti povrce? (How to freeze and thaw vegetables?)


Kako zamrznuti I odmrznuti povrce?

Osnovni saveti: 
1) Povrce treba dobro oprati, ocistiti I iseci na krupnije komade da bi se sacuvao vitamin C. 
2) Povrce je najbolje kratko blansirati pre zamrzavanja, da bi se unistile bakterije od kojih nastaje kvarenje. Povrce se spusta u vrelu vodu a kada ponovo dolijete vodu, vreme blansiranja se racuna od trenutka kada voda prokljuca. 
3) Nakon toga treba prekinuti proces kuvanja tako sto se povrce ohladi u hladnoj vodi, ili u ciniju sipati hladnu vodu I potopiti povrce onoliko minuta koliko se blansiralo ili pod mlazom hladne vode. 
4) Zatim povrce ocediti, osusiti I spakovati u kese za zamrzavanje. Prilikom pakovanja u kese potrudite se da izduvate/izbacite sto vise vazduha iz kese. Jednom odmrznuto povrce ne zamrzavati ponovo.

How to freeze and thaw vegetables?

Basic tips:
1) Vegetables should be well washed, cleaned and cut into larger pieces to preserve vitamin C.
2) It is best to blanch the vegetables briefly before freezing in order to destroy the bacteria causing the spoilage. The vegetables are lowered into boiling water and when you refill the water, the blanching time is calculated from the moment when the water boils.
3) After that, the cooking process should be stopped by cooling the vegetables in cold water for as many minutes as blanched or under running cold water.
4) Then drain the vegetables, dry them and pack them in freezer bags. When packing in bags, make sure to push out as much air as possible from the bag. Don't freeze vegetables once thawed.
