How to enjoy the fruits of summer all year long
Our complete guide to getting the most into (and out of) your freezer
Hey crew, and welcome back to Cool Beans! We’re about to hit that sweet time of year when late-spring and summer produce is poppin’ off, and farmers markets and grocery stores are bursting with the vibrant fruits and veggies of the season. It’s all also deliciously cheap. So cheap that you might be tempted to overbuy like it’s a ShopRite can-can sale. Unlike those tins of beans, though, this stuff isn’t gonna last in the pantry until next year—unless you treat your freezer like an extension of your pantry.
Your freezer is a cheat code in the fight against food waste, but it’s also so much more than that. It’s a fast-track to speedy weeknight dinners, and a tool to make some foods taste better than before they went into cold storage. Our series, Cookin’ with Ice, serves up the know-how you need to make the most of this unsung kitchen gadget.
