I never blanch peas before freezing. A few people on the plots say that broad beans dont need it either so I have 4 kilos unblanched in the freezer now with more to pick.

I use chinese takeaway tubs for most things and larger tupperware things for bulk stuff like broad beans and shucked sweetcorn... I'm going to try steam-cooking the seetcorn this year to see if making it set makes for an easier shuck...
