Book Synopsis

Forget the latest gadgets, the humble freezer is the unsung hero of every home kitchen!

In Cook Ahead, Justine Schofield shows you how to make the most of yours, saving time and money in the process. Justine covers everything you need to know about freezing, from organization, storage and labelling tips to a handy guide on how long to freeze different foods and the essential rules for safe freezing, thawing and reheating.

She also shares 90 recipes for delicious, everyday dishes that can be eaten straight away or stored in the freezer for a later date. As well as easy weeknight meals, there's a chapter on batch cooking, so you can load up your freezer for nights when you don't have time to cook. There are chapters on basic sauces, marinades and side dishes for freezing, so you can whip up delicious meals with a solid head start, and a ready-to-bake chapter, showing you how to pre-prepare scrolls, muffins, pies and more.

Because this is a book for the whole family, Justine includes freezable food for babies and toddlers - everything from their first sweet and savory purees to kiddie favorites like fish fingers and zucchini slice. And of course you'll find delicious freezable treats, such as sorbets, choc tops and smoothie packs. This is the ultimate freezer-friendly cookbook for every family budget.
