I like to make lots of different sauces for my steak. This one was a creamy peppercorn horseradish. I found these 1/2 to 1 cup molds. About the size of a stick of butter. They work awesome for saving my sauce. Then I can just drop them in the water bath along with the steak, or pop them in a pan to reheat.

This is pretty genius!
Being single, I also started doing this with heavy cream too. Sucks buying a pint of heavy cream and having half of it go bad. Now I buy a half gallon and split it into 1/4 cups and freeze in their own small individual packs. Just size my own bag by cutting and melting a new seam.
This is a silicone freezer mold from Amazon. It works great so far. Not an affiliate link, just sharing what I bought. https://a.co/d/9gqj7dy
Why not freeze them flat, in the bag?
Mind sharing your recipe for the sauce? Sounds tasty
This is like plastic wrapping individual bananas. Why not freeze into cubes and throw *multiple* cubes in a bag?
Does seem like a lot of single use plastic here, costly and wasteful.
Whatever you do do not trust the hal9000
How is the thawing experience? Are they hard to get out of the bag when you’re done? And do the sauces break?
Now starting making pot pies yourself and freezing them
same idea works great for fresh curry sauces too. Easier to make a batch, freeze it in cubes, then stick it in a bag for storage.
Once frozen the cubes dont normally stick together too much for me, so you can also keep a bunch of cubes in a resealable bag if that’s easier for storage.
