Anyone know if you can freeze bread sauce?

I'm trying to get as ahead as possible this Christmas and make and freeze as much as humanly possible before D-Day.

Anyone tried freezing bread sauce?

Sorry if this is in the wrong topic by the way.

I've never tried but on the basis you can freeze bread, you can freeze milk and you can freeze onion I would say yes.

GoodFood website might help.

well I buy the M&S bread sauce and have put it in the freezer. Should be fine.

arentfanny · 18/12/2010 20:11

Yes, my mother used to do it.

Georgimama · 19/12/2010 09:16

I've actually been thinking overnight of all the things that need to be done Chrimbo morning by way of food preparation, and on past experience the bread sauce (my favourite bit) is the most likely to get forgotten until its too late, so I am going to follow suit and freeze some today. Thank you OP.

yes

northerngirl41 · 19/12/2010 17:58

Seriously? It takes what 10 mins to put the powder into the pan and simmer with some milk... I'm thinking the hassle of defrosting and then trying to heat a congealed lump of bread sauce is utterly dull compared to simply opening a packet - or are you guys all making it from scratch?? [Fshock}

northerngirl powder???? what is this evil of which you speak? Xmas Grin

from M&S ready made or from scratch of course.

didnt know you could get it in a packet. Is it nice?

duckyfuzz · 19/12/2010 22:00

yes my mum always does (freezes it and brings it to me!)

northerngirl41 · 19/12/2010 22:33

Clearly I am slovenly - the packet stuff is fine, but don't go for supermarket own brand because they are a bit like wallpaper paste, go for Colmans or something.

TheSleepFairy · 19/12/2010 22:38

My husband & children will only eat Colmans packet powder bread sauce, I like my home made one so we have both.
Their one tastes fine but I prefer mine Grin

Powdered bread sauce? Xmas Shock

My mum makes the best, and she will be bringing a huge bowl along with her on Christmas Day (yes, a bowl - we like our bread sauce ladled on). Loads of nutmeg essential.

She will quite possibly have frozen it at some point.

Thanks for all the responses. I thought that this would be a dead end thread for sure.

Georgimama that's exactly what happened last year - too much going on at the last minute and something had to go. As I'm the only person that really likes breadsauce, that's the one that was ditched.

Thanks for all the advice and yes Xmas Shock at packet sauce. What next? Artificial trees? Xmas Wink.

Real food, artificial trees!

I've done the infused milk the day before then added the bread crumby bit on the day . It does need a good long infusion time .

I have tried freezing but found the flavour was dulled.

Chadnflo · 16/12/2018 18:52

It’s the same with humans... frozen sperm makes dull offspring 🤣

meg70 · 12/12/2020 09:07

How was the frozen bread sauce (10 years ago) OP? I'm thinking of doing that this weekend.
