Interesting.
I also keep fresh ingredients on hand in the freezers: lemon juice, lime juice, zest of various fruits, cilantro, parsley, minced shallots, lots of different chopped nuts. The one thing that I have yet to perfect keeping (and that is the blot in my "I have everything on hand" goal) are peppers. I just don't like the way they are when they thaw. I've even tried the ones from the grocery freezer section that have been commercially flash-frozen. None of it works for me.
I wish I could keep the prepared meals to a minimum so I have room for everything else (I have a huge bottom-drawer freezer plus a small chest freezer), but I'm in a mode where a I like my homemade food and also like a fast prep at mealtime. I won't cook single portions of anything but maybe a steak or chicken parts. I was in that make-ahead mode for years when I was going to night classes while working, then I did decades of spending time cooking in the evenings, now I'm back to make-ahead cooking for fast meal assembly.
Right now Ihear concern that there's gonna be a meat shortage on the horizon. I guess that will force me to start chewing through what I got. It's my goal for the balance of this year...and it may take that long.
I must be a reincarnated Depression-Era kid.
