have you ever frozen salami?

[lucysmam]

i have half a packet in the fridge that i hadn't planned anything for....seems a shame to waste so much so do you think it'll freeze ok?

will only be used for pizza topping at some point so can't see how it defrosts being a problem if it goes a bit mushy or anything

anyone.......this is the last item in the fridge to either be frozen or used somehow........

I always throw whatever sandwich meat is left iin the fridge when we go on holiday into the freezer, no one's dead yet :o Will be fine!

Well, they freeze pepperoni and salami on pizza, so I can't see why not.

genius....it never even occurred to me about freezing on pizza .....or freezing sarny meat....brill ty

Yes you can freeze salami. I've got about eight lots bagged up in there, bought when it had been knocked down to 9p per 100g five minutes before closing time. Defrost overnight and it's fine for lunchbox sandwiches.

I do it all the time, pepperoni and chorizo too. It's always handy to have in to make pizza, it's defrosted by the time you've made the dough!

ooh i do like a yellow stickered bargain, dp just got 3 loafs for the grand price of 25p. if i had known about freezing salami etc before i would have had some off the reduced rack at asda last weekend

Why freeze? It keeps forever. You can use it as a base for pasta sauce or fried up with onions and vegetables and added to beans.

Lucy, weren't you the poster that started really getting into cooking a few years ago?

the sealed ones freeze fine, the open ones can get a bit dry (will still be fine for a pizza).

moondog yep that was me, still got the book i wrote virtually the whole contents of that thread in too
