Shoppers at Shrewsburys Darwin Shopping Centre recently discovered how to become freezer experts at our Love Food Hate Waste roadshows. Several volunteers from Shropshire Master Composters took turns over the day along with staff from the local Council to run a public exhibition focusing on food waste reduction.
Local residents were able to pick up top tips about how to reduce food waste by making the most of their freezers. It was really interesting to chat
to local people about the variety of foods that can be frozen.
Freezers can be used to store tasty home
cooked meals, leftovers and preserve food that’s reaching its use-by
date. So why not try some of our frosty freezer tips:
- You can freeze foods right up to the end of the use-by date.
- Cook once, eat twice – make double portions of things like lasagne and bolognaise sauce so that you can eat one and freeze one for another meal.
- You can freeze a wide range of foods including things like cheese and milk which many people assume cannot be frozen.
- Visit your freezer often and keep tabs on what’s inside.
