Blanching Tips:
Blanching stops the action of enzymes in vegetables that could cause them to dis-colour, toughen, and sometimes lose flavours
Always blanch your ingredients in boiling water with the pot uncovered
Blanch in small batches so that you don't cool the water below boiling
Cool blanched ingredients immediately by placing them from the boiling water into a bowl of ice water.
Drain and dry vegetables well and then transfer on a flat tray into the freezer as soon as possible
