Why You Shouldn't Refreeze Store-Bought Pancakes: Expert Gives Sound Advice
After purchasing a large batch of ready-made stuffed pancakes, there may be a few pancakes left that have not been heat treated.
Experts believe that ready-made pancakes cannot be frozen a second time after defrosting.
The product should be consumed after heat treatment - they are not subject to aggressive freezing a second time.
You can store defrosted semi-finished products, including pancakes, for 24 hours – then you either need to cook them or throw them away.
Why can't you put defrosted ready-made pancakes back into the freezer?
First of all, before purchasing pancakes, you need to carefully read the composition of the product - pay special attention to pancakes that contain dyes, stabilizers and thickeners.
It is not worth buying such products. It is not worth putting pancakes in the freezer a second time, since after repeated removal the taste will change, and the product itself will start to spoil much faster after the first defrosting.
It is not recommended to buy pancakes with snow and ice on them. The surface of the finished product should be smooth with uniform porosity.
