It’s not a very common occurrence in our household, but sometimes we don’t finish a bottle of wine. I got this tip from one of Nigella’s series and have not wasted a drop since!!
Freeze leftover wine into ice cube trays for future use in casseroles, pies, even bolognese sauce.
Once the wine is frozen into cubes, I transfer them to a plastic bag or old ice-cream tub (be gentle with them as they’re a bit softer than regular ice cubes) and keep them stored in the freezer, this way I can free-up the ice cube trays for use again.
