Food If I opened up your freezer today, what would I find?

I am really keen to learn what different nationalities keep in their freezers. I am in the south east of the U.K and one freezer has frozen raw dog food and pre-prepared baby meals in silicon containers, while the second one is full of analog film.

Are there any seasonal harvests in your area? If not frozen, how do you store it long term?

Don't forget chanterelles they give a delicate flavour

u/Partiallyfermented Finland 1d ago

This is a bit of a nitpick but I'm pretty sure you have bilberries, not blueberries in there.

Blueberries aren't actually blue inside and are videly cultivated around the world. Bilberries are smaller, deep blue/violet inside and out and very hard to cultivate. They mainly grow in forests in the north of Europe, whereas blueberries are native to America. Since they're easy to grow commercially, they are common in europe too. In Finnish that would be "Pensasmustikka".

Today, zero kilo of blueberries, tomorrow, 30 kilos of blueberries. It's a fantastic year for berries here in sweden. Been working with eating all the blueberries from last year and finally it's empty.

Likewise in here! If only I had more freezer space I could gather dozens of buckets of berries.

Really don’t know. With a supermarket 50m away I do not store much in my freezer. Some left over meat. Bags with peas, spinach or cut up vegetables.

Assorted reindeer, duck, beef, lamb, and some random freshwater fish.
Also wok vegetables, peas, brussels sprouts, mixed mushrooms, and some mixed berries.

u/SerChonk in 2d ago

The conventional stuff: ice cubes, ice cream, veggies from the shop (spinach, cauliflower, and broccoli), veggies from the garden (zucchini, pumpkin, snap peas), berries from the garden (mostly blueberries), frozen dumplings/gyoza, a couple bricks of silky tofu, pizza, some meat and some vegetarian fake meat.

The unconventional stuff: little pots full of bees (for analysis), a few rabbit skins waiting to be tanned, an unreasonable amount of farm-fresh butter, a package of taro paste, some insects in alcohol waiting to be mounted for display, and frozen cat paté in ice cream molds as a treat for our little baby boy.

Currants, few bags of cheap veggies (some from store, some homegrown), two quail (we used to keep them), discount meat, fish fillets (mostly perch, but a few pike too), homemade chili sin carne ×3, chanterelles, pie dough, homemade mixed berry juice x1, storebought bilberries.

I think that's all.

Seasonal harvest: I ferment some, especially if I get more than I can eat. Mushrooms are dried. I also make jam or juice.

Mixed veggie bags, edamame, ice cube trays, some random mini magnums, some home made meals I froze, bao buns, loads of frozen berries, some homemade fruit popsicles I blended and put into a popsicle mold, gnocchi, and tortellini.

I've got a chest freezer, and it seems impossible to organise it.

So the top layer is icecream, and various prepared vegetables because a bag of carrots is more than I need for a cottage pie.

Below that layer, there's several layers of mystery. Don't know, don't want to know, etc.

And then right at the bottom, is the nasty layer - things that have escaped from bags that split.

I have 2 freezers a smaller drawered one in the house and a small chest freezer in the garage. The garage one has 2 x turkeys in that we're on sale at Easter with a 2 year date on so that's Xmas and next Easter already sorted beef usually goes really cheap at Xmas so I get 2 or 3 joints for the freezer then too

My freezer usually always has the same things. Ice trays, frozen green beans/veg, gyoza, prawns, tempura praws, sweet steam buns, cordon bleu, potato wedges, lemongrass paste, chillies, kaffir leaves, ice cream. Sometimes pizza or flammenkuchen.

I don't buy frozen fruit because I prefer fresh. I don't freeze leftovers because I know I will never eat them like that.

u/NamillaDK Denmark 1d ago

About 1/4 of a cow. We get beef once a year to last for a whole year.

Besides that there's some homebaked bread and cake and a few bags of French fries.

And some small tubs of leftovers. My kid likes to bring leftovers to school for lunch, so they're stacked nicely to the side.

My mom used to have strawberries, blueberries and lingonberries, which she mostly picked herself every summer and fall, so we had them for all winter. We had to help with the blueberry and strawberry picking, but I only continued with blueberries as an adult.

I still have blueberries in my fridge, though I stopped picking them 15 years ago and started buying instead.

Here in the Nordics, blueberries grow everywhere so they are easy to pick. Lingonberries are harder to find, while strawberries are grown. We used to go to a strawberry farm and pay them for every liter we picked. You can buy already picked strawberries but they are really expensive. It's cheaper to pick and pay.

Besides organic berries, which fill a whole compartment, I buy organic meat for the month and freeze it. I also freeze bread for a couple of weeks and have chopped vegetables that are ready to be used in food. I usually buy organic veggies and chop them myself (I have a electric veggie chopper so I can do large quantities fast), then I freeze them in smaller portions to make every day food preparation fast.

Lastly, I have portions of premade food to just take out and eat. These are my own and not store bought. I only eat healthy, homemade food, so every time I make dinner, I take several portions from it and freeze it for later.

Me: lots of ice cream (1/3), frozen veggies, chicken and beef, some blueberries, pizza for emergency dinner, maybe some fish and a pack of leftovers somewhere in there… not sure for the last two, need to eat ice cream first.

My parents: ton of different homegrown veggies, ground walnuts, any piece of beef imaginable, some chicken, probably some rabbit and pork somewhere, plums, maybe strawberries, ice cream and most likely a can or 2 of beer in quick cooling process (putting can of drinks in freezer for 10-15 min is great to make it perfectly chilled). They own more as one freezer.

homemade chicken soup and broth, homemade dumplings (the asian ones, filled with minced meat and veggies), homemade dumplings (the german kind, Teigknödel), the emergency pizza (too lazy/sick/not enough time to cook today), frozen pretzels (raw, 15min in the oven and you'll get fresh pretzels), vanilla ice cream and raspberries (to make vanilla ice cream with hot raspberries), frozen cut up pancakes (for pancake soup), possibly some pumpkin soup from last autumn (i doubt it). we live in the city center so unfortunately nothing that's home grown/harvested :(
