Ina Garten Always Has These 3 Things in Her Freezer

Ina Garten, the host of the Food Network program Barefoot Contessa, told Food & Wine about three things she always has in her freezer. You may be surprised to hear that they are vodka, bread, and vanilla ice cream – we expected something more nutritious, to be honest. Here’s the explanation for each of them.

Vodka

Keeping vodka in the freezer is a great way to have it chilled at all times since it won’t actually freeze, at least not in typical domestic freezers.

Bread

Bread is a staple that you should never run out of, and the best way to make sure you always have some at home is to freeze it. Of course, make sure it’s sliced before freezing it; you can just take it out and toast it whenever you need it.

Vanilla Ice Cream

Vanilla is the most basic ice cream flavor and it pairs perfectly with many desserts, so keeping a batch in the freezer sounds like a good idea to us!
