Can I just point out that I was trying to find out if you could freeze Scotch eggs and NOT browsing the Guardian website?

Well
that's alright then. The link was pretty dull anyway...
( oodle doodle, Tue 9 Mar 2004, 11:22, archived)

And
it contained no information on the freezability of Scotch eggs. Tut!

scotch eggs
You can't really freeze them. the scotch bit freezes OK but boiled eggs don't freeze well. I could start boring you witless about albumin structures but ...suffice to say eggs turn to rubber...

At least that's an answer!
Thank you. I shan't freeze them, I shall just make hubby eat them all in one go.

They didn't say.
Honestly, these are the issues that matter, for crying out loud.

you can't freeze boiled eggs
(the whites go icky)
So I would imagine you can't freeze scotch eggs either. Unless you just intend to use them as projectile weapons.

Thank you, sah.
That's 2 nos and 1 yes, so I'll not freeze them. Thank you for sorting out my culinary problems.

My friend says
you CAN freeze them. He's frozen them before, they're fine after defrosting and can be reheated to taste.

Apparently, stuff on catwalks is not designed for the practical woman. Tsk. Now they have the vote, they really are struggling for things to moan about.
