Quick Answers
How can I prevent vegetables, like green beans, from sticking together?
After blanching and draining well, spread in a single
layer on a baking sheet or tray and cover them. Put in
the freezer. Freeze vegetables until firm and then
transfer to freezing containers. Label and return to the
freezer. The vegetables will not stick together. This
method is especially good for green beans, peas, whole
kernel corn, and small mixed vegetables. Do not freeze
asparagus on trays; it will curl, making it difficult to
pack into containers.
