Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Hallo. I do a lot of prepping food in to individual servings, and freeze portions of rice in baggies in the freezer. Does anyone know, can you cook & freeze pasta (just the plain noodes, without any sauce) what is the best way to store pasta for indivudual use? I'm the ony veggie at home, so I have plan my meals ahead... Thanks in advance, Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 6, 2006 Report Share Posted November 6, 2006 Yep, it's so simple it's almost stupid, heh-heh. Cook noodles or rice according to box/package intructions, let drain and cool, throw in Ziplock freezer bag and mark date and contents on front. ALL DONE! Wasn't that easy? Hahahahaha...... --Celia-- , " sammythingy " <sammything wrote: > > Hallo. I do a lot of prepping food in to individual servings, and > freeze portions of rice in baggies in the freezer.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2006 Report Share Posted November 8, 2006 Ya know, I have to say, **for me** pasta cooks so fast, why bother?? I do up sauces, and toppings, for freezing (or fridge), but just boil up a handful of pasta as needed, then top with the other stuff that is pre-prepared earlier.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 I have frozen regular pasta with sauce, don't know about doing it without sauce. However, I DO know that you should not freeze rice, corn or quinoa pasta as when I did it it came out like a giant mazo ball and was pretty gross! Christene " Thia ....

Guest guest Posted November 10, 2006 Report Share Posted November 10, 2006 I freeze brown rice almost every week. It always comes out perfect. I stick it in a covered pyrex dish and microwave for a minute or two. Though I like matzo balls (I am a fan of sinkers and my mom only makes floaters, so sad).
