What can I use my freezer for, other than just food?
1) Jean Freeze
The most unusual thing you can do with your freezer is clean your jeans.
Putting your denims in the freezer is said to kill the bacteria build-up with low temperatures.
Experts recommend you wash your jeans conventionally too, but for a quick fix this will remove any lingering smells.
2) Ice cream bags
When you need that sugar fix from your favourite ice cream after a long day, the wait for it to thaw seems like a lifetime.
But by portioning your ice cream into separate sandwich bags you cut the thaw time in half.
No longer will you be waiting for the well-deserved late night treat.
3) Save the wine
Freezing those last few drops of wine you just can’t finish is the perfect way to keep it for later.
Pour the leftovers into an ice cube tray ready to be used for cooking.
4) Storing Fresh Veg
If you have too many vegetables and want to save for later, blanch them in boiling water before storing them in the freezer.
Freezing will lock in the flavour until you reheat and eat.
5) Fill to the brim
Pack your freezer full.
A jam-packed freezer is the best way to keep your frozen foods at their best,.
The freezer stays cooler for longer and will actually save energy and money, proving that being disorganised isn’t always a bad thing.
