Starchy produce and grains such as apples, bananas, and rice freeze better than other foods due to their lower water content and structural support. Cooked items, like cookie dough and baked goods, retain quality when frozen and can be thawed multiple times. Liquid foods, including soups, can also be frozen, although high-fat emulsions and gelatin-based mixtures may be damaged by ice crystals. Preventing freezer burn is essential, so using airtight or vacuum-sealed containers is recommended for storing frozen foods.
Starchier produce and grains like apples, bananas, root vegetables, squashes, and rice tend to suffer less from freezing due to their structure and lower water content.
Cookie dough and baked goods freeze exceptionally well since they contain less ice-forming water, thus ensuring texture and quality are maintained through multiple freezes.
While most liquids like soups and juices can be refrozen without major quality loss, high-fat emulsions and gelatin-based mixtures can be compromised by ice crystal formation.
To prevent freezer burn and maintain food quality, store frozen items in airtight containers or vacuum-sealed bags, as moisture can escape from frozen foods over time.
