Q: I’m wondering if anyone knows of good products for storing liquids in the freezer? I’ve recently turned onto the virtues of homemade chicken stock, but my soup and stew projects have dwindled with the springtime and it’s taking more time to work through each batch.

In New York, the obvious choice has always been the plastic quart-containers that are so prominent in the food industry here, but since I don’t eat out much, I don’t really have access to them. Is there another solution? I can’t be the only person dissatisfied with zip-lock baggies and Tupperware designed for cereal!

Editor: We also tend to just use big plastic baggies, which have a tendency to leak, and are messy and awkward to fill. We’d love a new option!

Readers, any ideas or brilliant ways to store chicken broth and soups?
