How to Freeze Nacho Cheese
Equipment
- airtight container
- marker or pen
- freezer bags
Ingredients
- Nacho Cheese homemade or store-bought
Instructions
- If you have made your nacho cheese at home, ensure that it is completely cool before getting started.
- Portion out the cheese in the amounts you will need as you defrost it.
- Scoop the cheese into a freezer bag or an airtight container. note: if using an airtight container, use one sized so that there is only an inch or two between the cheese and the lid. This will minimize the air exposure.
- Zip your freezer bag closed, after pressing all the air out of it. If using a container, press the lid securely down on it.
- Jot the date on the bag or container and stick it in the freezer.
Notes
Cool well: if you make it at home, make sure it is totally cooled before starting to package it up.
Make it fresh: whether store-bought or homemade, ensure you freeze as soon as possible to lock in maximum taste, quality and freshness.
Portion accordingly: know how much you will use when you defrost and portion it and package it in those amounts. This way you only defrost the amount you need each time.
