Freezing vegetables

Basically, you can freeze most kinds of vegetables, the only exceptions being leafy vegetables and salads. It's important to clean the vegetables thoroughly and ideally to blanch them (cook briefly in boiling water) before freezing. This ensures that they retain their valuable nutrients, colour and flavour. When you use frozen vegetables to prepare meals, there's no need to defrost them beforehand. Simply cook them from frozen.
