Can broccoli be frozen?

Broccoli can be frozen, but not directly. The freezing temperature is lower than the survival temperature of broccoli, which contains a lot of vitamins, protein and other nutrients. Freezing will accelerate the loss of nutrients. If you want to freeze broccoli, you can wash it, pick it up, blanch it once and put it in a food preservation bag for up to 2 months.

If you store broccoli at home, it is not recommended to freeze it directly because of the limitations of broccoli and freezing conditions. It is suggested that you clean the broccoli you bought, cut it into small pieces, and then put it in the refrigerator for freezing, but it is also easy to cause the loss of nutrients.

Under normal circumstances, the broccoli you buy is directly stored in the refrigerator, but it can't be kept for long. The best method is quick freezing: after harvesting for 3-5 hours, the broccoli stems will turn green and yellow. If you want to keep fresh to the maximum extent, you must put it at low temperature in the shortest time.

Therefore, when freezing broccoli, you must choose fresh and harmless broccoli, quickly put it in the freezer at 1 ~ 2 degrees Celsius, and finally keep it at 0 degrees Celsius.
