I am making chicken soup for shabbos now because I am going away for Shavuos and will be back right before shabbos. If I freeze the soup with the soup veggies, and then reheat on Friday, will it will taste good? Will the veggies be soggy? Is there a specific way to freeze? Thanks!!

Also I am making a brisket now and freezing- when is a good time to slice? Before freezing or after I rewarm on Friday?

Vegetables will be fine. Just don't freeze potato.

Cool the meat in the fridge and then slice and freeze.

I find the vegatables dont freeze well. I freeze the soup and then when I warm it up I put in carrots and squash.

Meat will only slice nice if it is cold.

Thank you! I'm cooking the veggies for shorter time than usual so they dont fall apart. Hopefully they will freeze well

Personally I don't like the defrosted vegetables so I just freeze the broth. If I want vegetables in the soup I had some thin slices of fresh vegetables when reheating and it cooks through pretty quickly.

Best time to slice the roast is when it's very cold. I like to cook, refrigerate overnight, slice, then freeze. But you can freeze it now and slice on Friday when it's mostly defrosted but really cold, if you have the time.

I was actually hoping you'd respond! Using fresh thin sliced veggies is a great idea- wish I'd thought of it earlier. For now I'm hoping the defrosted veggies wont taste too bad...

It will be fine. Not as good as fresh but totally ok.
