How do you store vegetables in the freezer?

Freeze fruits and vegetables quickly by spreading them in a single layer on a rimmed sheet pan. When the produce is frozen solid, store in air-tight containers or freezer bags. Fill hard-sided containers to the top and remove as much air as possible from freezer bags. Be sure to date the packages.

Can you freeze green beans without cooking them first?

Yes! You can freeze fresh green beans without blanching. The method below saves time because it doesn't require blanching the beans. You're just going to trim the ends off, chop into desired sizes, wash them and freeze!

Are frozen green beans already cooked?

The nice thing about frozen green beans is that they're quick frozen but not cooked, which means they retain their color—although their texture suffers a bit in the process of freezing and thawing.
