Can Perfect Dog Roll Be Frozen for Feeding at a Later Date?
Yes, you can freeze the fresh dog roll (either whole or cut into cubes or slices). Freezing is still one of the best ways to preserve fresh food with minimal nutritional loss if prepared and stored correctly.
Freezing fresh food, including dog roll, has some physical impacts due to the nature of how water and cellular structures behave at low temperatures and this has a physical effect on the food, however, be assured that the nutritional value of the product is largely preserved.
A simple explanation to the science of freezing food in is that when the product goes into the frozen state, large crystals form. The cell walls then rupture when the product defrosts. These cells that have been ‘shattered’ by the expansion cannot hold their pre freezing physical structure and so the texture of the roll will be ‘wet’, grainer to the feel and the texture will soften and be a bit mushy.
Here are some tips for successfully freezing dog roll for longer term storage:
