I spread it all out on a tray and freeze it then once it is frozen I tip it into a container. It means you always have it on had for a extra pizza topping in the middle of winter and it can be added to anything you cook. If I am using it on pizza I defrost it on a paper towel/clean tea towel to get rid of the excess water.Fiona from Arbordale Farmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05196630415124998431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7957074720324686869.post-87570037970308726132013-02-04T05:46:23.618+10:002013-02-04T05:46:23.618+10:00How do you freeze your capsicum?
