Have done the cream thing! But way back, someone must have told me, I discovered that if you gradually add some cold milk and gently whip, it restores the fluidity to the thickness you want! Saved me a few times

Frozen cookie dough is the best! Scoop out cookie dough with a small ice cream scoop, freeze on a sheet pan, transfer to storage bag=warm cookies & happy kids whenever you need them!

This was a delightfully helpful read! I’ve been feeling underwhelmed with lunch inspiration whilst at home with my baby and the cooked grains bowls are the perfect solution! I’m also genuinely excited for the next supermarket shop to grab some of these supplies - frozen chopped onions being number one on the list! Thank you ☺️

I find that when I try and fry those frozen onions that there is so much water that they don't brown and caramelise.

I bulk freeze tons of veggies from my son's organic farm. I don't blanche anything, I just wash and dry and flash freeze on a lined cookie sheet before freezing in zip locks. Beans, courgette (cubed) , roma and cherry tomatoes, kale, celery tops ..... I also cook beets and then cube them, flash freeze and zip lock. All can be added to stir fries at the last minute and just heated through. If I have oddly shaped tomatoes I chop and freeze in a mason jar. And, yes, definitely frozen jars of onions, garlic and garlic scapes.
