onions
peeled and chopped, diced, or sliced
Instructions
Peel and cut onions into whatever size you'd like—we like diced, chopped, or sliced.
Arrange the onion pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet.
Slide the baking sheet into the freezer. Freeze for 2-3 hours, or until the onions are frozen solid.
Transfer the frozen onions to airtight, freezer-safe containers or bags, removing as much air as possible.
Notes
This can be done with any amount of onions. Just be sure to keep them in a single layer in the initial freeze, which may require working in batches.
