Freeze stews and soups flat

Here is a simple trick to freeze soups and stews flat and thus space-saving: My freezers and chests are always quite full as I prepare food for many people almost every day and constantly need a large supply.

Even pre-cooked food has its right to exist and needs space in the freezer. For soups and stews it is often a problem, as I have no room for "thick-bellied" bags.

The problem is usually:

You somehow get a bag of liquid food in a TK compartment, but it then clings to the already frozen food and deforms, so that it can be difficult to rearrange in this form.


The very good, but in my case not applicable, tip to freeze soups and stews in the bag in empty washed-out milk / juice bags and remove them later, and then stack the blocks, is out of the question, since my subjects are already occupied.

But what is possible:

The freezer bag is frozen flat on a tray above all food that has already been frozen so that it later takes up little space because it could not deform.

Of course, if you only own a small freezer, you will not be able to do anything with the tip. I'm freezing? On a big scale? in several cabinets and chests and it is important to save space. Freezer cans, including those of ice cream, are also not suitable for me, as I freeze large quantities of meat, vegetables and pre-cooked and would not fit one or the other in cans.
