Freezing Peppers

Peppers often tend to be available cheap on the reduced shelf or sold in multi-packs although many dishes only require one. In order to reduce waste and to ensure that you have peppers available when required you can freeze any which are unused.

​Slice the peppers into thin strips and discard the seeds and pith (the white bit), place them in a freezer bag and freeze. In order to avoid freezer-burn they should be used within three months and when defrosted they will retain the crunchy bite which they had prior to being frozen.
