You can freeze relatively resistant herbs such as rosemary, thyme, bay leaf, as they are. Remove the more delicate leaves such as mint and basil from their stems, place them in ice cube trays and cover with water. After freezing, you can store fresh herb ice in a container.
There are several ways to save summer fruits for winter. Drying is the most common method. But freezing is also extremely simple. While mountain fruits can be frozen as they are, it is necessary to remove the seeds from some fruits and place them on a baking tray on which you lay non-stick baking paper and freeze them.
Make sure that the fruits do not overlap in the tray. It may take 4-6 hours or even overnight to freeze, but do not forget to take it in a container immediately, as it should not be snowed after it is frozen. You can also freeze fruits such as peaches and figs in water or sugar syrup. The fruit can last at least 3 months in the freezer.
There are a few points to be aware of when freezing vegetables and fruits. First of all, the material should be as fresh as possible, it should not be kept waiting after taking it. Freezing changes the texture of fruits and vegetables, not as fresh as fresh, but suitable for use in cooking. After washing, it is essential to strain thoroughly and dry thoroughly in a salad dryer or towel, because if any water remains on them, ice crystals will form.
