Freezing Items Breaded in Raw Egg

[PanchoHambre]

In this case risotto balls (allready cooked) dipped in egg and breadcrumbs... I had to much. I did not want to fry first and freeze. Is this OK?

I would think it would be ok for the short term. My mother use to bread shrimp to fry, put it on cookie sheets until frozen, then put in ziplock bags. I miss those days. Fried Shrimp in 10 minutes.

I don't think that you have a safety problem. Freezing uncooked breaded and then cooking should work. Every time I have tried to freeze cooked breaded items, they either came out overcooked or soggy when reheated.

You could always par fry then freeze them. That's how most of the frozen foods meant for the deep fryer are packaged...

That's what I do with morels when in season. Then all I have to do is put them on a cookie sheet in a 350 oven til golden brown.
