I also peel and freeze fresh ginger then grate it directly into the dish I'm preparing. It saves me finding forgotten (usually green/blue furry) pieces of ginger in the back of the fridge, and it breaks down the stringy fibres of the ginger.Hester @ Alchemy in the Kitchenhttp://www.alchemyinthekitchen.ienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286362003366840691.post-57438064552035016532012-01-28T02:53:21.959+01:002012-01-28T02:53:21.959+01:00Mmmm aspic!

The results were really awful.<br />I thought it was the processed pseudo-brie I have seen on American websites. (The best way, apart from the raw milk, to recognise the real brie is to look if it has AOC (a certificate it's a real brie). I know in many European countries unpasteurised milk production is allowed, but importation not, this is why I thought you had a different brie.Sissihttp://www.withaglass.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286362003366840691.post-30893134259353770862012-01-27T23:21:19.188+01:002012-01-27T23:21:19.188+01:00I hope it was real brie:) It was from France.

I mean...Mr. Three-Cookies, was your brie real brie? I mean brie de Meaux? Raw milk? Or just a "brie type cheese"? (I know many such cheese varieties are sold outside of France). All the soft, maturing raw-milk cheese freezing was a disaster in my case... Mainly because of the aroma they have lost (texture not as much). I know Polish cheese called brie (produced in Poland I think) and it had no smell, was made of pasteurised milk, didn't mature etc.. Such a cheese doesn't lose much in freezing process I guess.Sissihttp://www.withaglass.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286362003366840691.post-64453414268304375562012-01-27T21:07:43.196+01:002012-01-27T21:07:43.196+01:00It is.

All my attempts with real, maturing cheese were disasters. The texture was spoiled or/and the aroma or taste. Some end up edible (like curd/cottage cheese), but the taste or texture are worse. I would advise experimenting first with small amounts.Sissihttp://www.withaglass.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4286362003366840691.post-31802433654657966812012-01-27T08:54:34.600+01:002012-01-27T08:54:34.600+01:00I never knew cream cheese and sour cream can be fr...I never knew cream cheese and sour cream can be frozen, or even jam!

We had an Australian friend making it on the "barby" and what we heard (in his very strong aussie accent) was "Turd" in the hole! Took us awhile to get it. <br />Did you know that properly made jam doesn't really freeze? <br />I've never thought of freezing flour... good idea. In our weather, it'll definitely keep better.
