rockncook Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Has anyone ever done this? I want to make some spaghettios type foods for my kids that will be quick lunches for summer, but I know pasta doesn't freeze well. How about freezing ravioli? Anyone ever done that? Link to comment
Linda Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 i have canned and froze leftover pasta dishes. don't really care for the canning of .. comes out mushy.... i have also found for me to cook the frozen fight from the frozen state not to let them thaw first. works better for our taste.

Guest Guest Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 I had thought about canning spaghetti sauce with pasta and even did a few trial runs with it... The spaghetti was mush and when I did further research on it the USDA strongly cautioned against canning pasta because it interferes with the product in the jars reaching the appropriate temperature for safe canning. As far as freezing ravioli, that's a sure GO! and works out awesome...just make sure you freeze them on a cookie sheet or something flat like that so that they're not touching, and when fully frozen, throw into zip lock bags, or whatever you plan on storing it in. When you go to use, boil frozen until done... Good luck! Link to comment
rockncook Posted April 26, 2005 Author Share Posted April 26, 2005 Well then how do they make spaghettios, darn it? I suppose they load it with a ton of preservatives and artificial goo to make it hold it's shape and taste. When we were cleaning out the shed here, we found these thingies that make pastries, and there was one that is ravioli sized, so I'm goig to make some of those. I'm excited to get going on that little project, LOL. Thanks, Ladies! Mommy of Six Link to comment
