Students Begin
Experimentation in
Vegetable Freezing
For the first time in the history
of Texas A. & M. college, a class
in commercial canning has started
experimentation in quick freezing
of vegetables. The class, in the
horticulture department, is being
conducted by Robert F. Cain, a
graduate of Texas Tech, who spent
his first two years in college at
A. & M.
The first vegetable to be pro
cessed and frozen by the new
method is broccoli. Various con
tainer manufacturers have been
contacted and samples of their
containers have been used and
tested.
The method now being used is
expected to improve the quality
and conditions of the vegetable to
such an extent that it will be super
ior to so-called “fresh” vegetables
available at grocery stores and
market centers, Cain says, because
all of the freshness is retained in
the quick freezing process.
At the present time 500 quarts
and 500 pints of broccoli have been
processed and frozen. The students
will open the packages from time
to time to compare the condition
of the food in the various con
tainers.
