Kitchen tip: Freezing onions

 iSavvyMom     4:30 PM     freeze onions, quick cooking tip, store onions     9 comments   

It seems that almost every recipe calls for onions but I don't like having to spend the extra time each time I am cooking or worry about the tears while chopping them so I started freezing them. It had worked beautifully.

Whenever I have the time to chop up some onions when cooking, I cut up some extra, put it in a Ziploc bag, remove some air, seal it and freeze it.



Next time a recipe calls for onions, I take the bag of onions out to thaw for few minutes and toss what I need in the pan. No extra work needed and no need to get the cutting board and a knife and wash them afterwards.
You can also measure enough for one recipe then store them in small sandwich bags.

How to freeze onions:

  1. Peel onions, make horizontal and vertical cuts then chop.

  2. Put the chopped onions in a Ziploc bag

  3. Lay flat to get extra air out, seal, then freeze


Not sure how to cut an onion? Check out this video here
