Freezing Simplest
Preserving Method
Jane Watkins
HD Agent for Jack County
Freezing is one of the simplest
and fastest methods of preserving
foods at home. It keeps the natur-
al color, fresh flavor and food va-
lues of most fruits, vegetables and
meats better than other methods
of food preservaion.
Freezing provides the conven-
ience of having the food products
that ran be prepared quickly for
serving.
Costs of owning and operating a
inne freezer may range from 13
to 28 cents a pound of food frozen,
depending on rate of turnover. On
a pound basis, freezing costs de-
crease as the quantity of food fro-
zen is increased. Cost estimates are
based on electricity used, costs of
packaging materials, repairs and
average freezer costs distributed
over 10 years.
Directions for freezing fruit, ve-
getables, meats, dairy products,
eggs, fish, prepared foods and other
foods can be obtained from the Ex-
tension Office, LO 7-2132. Call or
come by for the bulletin, Frozen
Foods, B-175.
Directions should be followed
carefully, because the quality of
