Q1: How long can a store-bought wheat bread be kept in the fridge w/o
affecting the nutrient content? Does freezing cooked food (especially of non-meat) reduce the nutrient content? I have only frozen raw meat, frozen dinner or pizza, and sometimes, boiled chickpeas or yellow split peas I use to make some dish. It doesn't look like I will get to using newly bought wheat breads - 2 loafs, total 3 lbs - soon. How long can I keep them in the fridge unopened? Should I freeze them? I guess freezing won't change the quality of carbohydrate content, right? Or should I just eat wheat bread in all meals instead of freezing? The other starch I have are - more than half a loaf of Oro Wheat wheat bread - Roti (3 piece left) - Santa Rosa wheat Tortilla (almost the whole pkg left) - Corn tortilla (almost the whole pkg left) - Fresh French bread (not wheat) which I eventually put in the fridge (probably should make crouton out of it) - I have egg noodle - 1/4 of the pkg left, which is already boiled - that I must soon soon aside from left over fried egg noodle - Basmatic rice which I avoid eating because it is white, but I made beef curry last night and , I can't avoid completely because they just go together too well; Last night, I also made a vegetarian dish with yellow split peas, Indian eggplants, and okra that would go with rice. (Indian curries seems to preserve food better in the fridge) Q2: As you can see, unless I only eat wheat bread, my wheat breads are not getting get used up any time soon; I would hate to freeze but if I do, I want to know whether the affect of freezing on the nutrient content. Also, can I wait some times before freezing in case I get to using those? Or should I freeze now? |
