FREEZING LAMB
Lamb is plentiful this time of year,
so this is a good time to stock the
family freezer, says Miss Nelle Thrash,
Extension food preservation special
ist. Best results in freezing lamb are
achieved by using only high-quality
cuts, prepared and frozen as soon as
possible after purchase. Miss Thrash
recommends the use of airtight, mois
ture and vapor resistant wrapping ma
terials to protect meat from freezer
burn.
