What type of containers/bags….just standard freezers bags or zip bags??My freezer. 😄
I use freezer bags with zips because I find them more convenient for opening and closing. The ones with the press closure are very fiddly.What type of containers/bags….just standard freezers bags or zip bags??

I also find the zip lock ones last longer.
No, we just pick and eat it. Purple sprouting goes mushy if you blanch and freeze it. You could try freezing it without blanching but when you eat it I would Chuck it in boiling water for no more than 30 seconds.I got zip bags and a fair bit of brocolli to harvest tomorrow……so thats my sunday sorted lol
do you do the same with purple sprouting too??
No i dont grow kale at the moment, but looking at new things to grow next year, but i am limited for space@jowwy do you grow Cavolo Nero? A very productive type of kale which is a doddle to grow but very expensive to buy. I guess it's expensive either because it's trendy or it seems to me genuinely difficult to harvest commercially. Plants just keep on producing for months.
Don't blanch it before freezing. Just remove the centre rib, shred, freeze blind and then bag up.
