Number Of Ingredients 1

20 oz swiss chard ((~2 large bunches))

Steps:

  • Wash chard.
  • Loosely chop into ribbons.

  • Using tongs or a slotted spoon, remove chard and add to the ice water. Chill for 3 minutes.
  • Transfer chilled chard to a strainer and allow it to drain.
  • Squeeze excess water out of the chard (I squeeze portions in my hand over the strainer).

  • Freeze for 3 hours. Transfer to freezer bags once chard has frozen solid.

Categories     how to

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 bunch Swiss chard (or as much as you want)
water

Steps:

  • Properly rinse both the leaves and the stems under cold running water. An additional step to this method includes filling a sink or large bowl with cold water and allowing the chard to soak for a good 10 minutes.
  • Prepare a bowl of ice water large enough for your chard pieces to submerge in.
  • Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.
  • Add the Swiss chard stalks and blanch for 3 minutes.
  • Remove and plunge chard stems in the bowl of ice water. This immediately stops the cooking process.
  • Transfer to a colander to drain.
  • Next, repeat the same process with the chard leaves but blanch for only one to two minutes.
  • Use your hands to squeeze the excess moisture gently. As an alternative, use a potato ricer to squeeze out the excess water. There is no need to separate the stalks from the leaves.
  • Place in resealable ziplock bags.
  • Use a straw or a sealer to remove as much air as possible. This, in turn, will reduce the formation of ice crystals.
  • Properly label your bags by indicating the date and place your bag in the freezer.
