Freeze paper- uses

Never heard of this one? We’re sure you’ve seen it many a time, as this is exactly the kind of paper used to wrap meat, fish, and cheese at many grocery stores. It’s also known as butcher paper or cheese paper, and it’s basically a heavy-duty type of paper with a plastic coating on one side. 

 

Fresh meat and seafood are wrapped in this paper before freezing, and it seals in all the juices while also protecting the food from freezer burn. When wrapping food, the plastic coating goes on the inside, and the plain paper side is on the outside, letting you write and label the food

When to Use It: 

Use freezer paper to prolong the freshness of the food when frozen, and seal in the flavor. Generally, foods wrapped in freezer paper remain fresh for up to a full year. It’s stronger than foil, and fits snugly against the food, protecting delicate meat or fish from freezer burn. Freezer paper is perfect for long-term storage. 

 

When to Avoid Using It:  

Freezer paper isn’t perfect for loose foods like peas or broccoli, as these would be tough to wrap. It’s also not very beneficial for foods that need to be defrosted fast, as the only way to defrost something wrapped in freezer paper is by transferring it to the fridge overnight. Needless to say, you should never heat up freezer paper in the oven or microwave. The plastic coating will melt and cling to the food. 

 

Substitutions: 

You can replace freezer paper with freezer-proof food containers, aluminum foil, or beeswax paper wraps.
