I eat grapes everyday. They do me good, and I really like them, so I never want to be without grapes. Seedless, of course.
But grapes do not keep very well even in the fridge. So I Goggled to find out if you can freeze grapes. I do not want to ever throw grapes away again.
Yes, grapes are freezable!!
Here's what you do. Wash them. Get out a cookie sheet. Put some waxed paper on the cookie
sheet. Spread the grapes out on the cookie sheet. Put cookie sheet into freezer and freeze them solid. Remove grapes from freezer. Transfer frozen grapes to plastic bags and seal. Put the bags back in the freezer.
When you want grapes, just take out a few and enjoy them even if they are frozen. They are a
great treat when they are frozen. I'll bet little children would like them better than candy.
I think I froze about 200 grapes. If I eat 10 grapes a day, they will last me for 20 days. I think
these grapes cost me about $.04 per grape. That really is outrageous.
But, what the heck, I really like grapes.
That is a grape idea, Mom. I am going to try it.
ReplyDeleteYes!! I knew you could freeze grapes and it is such a great way to preserve them as they are outrageously expensive! Once Noah can eat fresh fruit without being puree form that is how I will give him fresh fruit. Someone also told me that little kids like frozen peas as a snack... so why not!! :) Great idea Grams!! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Julie! I like frozen peas, too!
