Meet the Future of Freshness: Bosch’s 100 Series French Door Fridge

Make National Strawberry Day last all year! Learn tips for freezing strawberries to keep them fresh, juicy, and ready for every season.

<p>We all know this heartbreak all too well... You buy a beautiful carton of strawberries, dreaming of smoothies, shortcakes, and sweet snacks, only to find them sad, mushy, and unrecognizable a few days later. It feels like a race against time! But here&rsquo;s the thing: it doesn&rsquo;t have to be.</p>
<p>Freezing strawberries is a simple, foolproof way to make sure that sweet, juicy flavor sticks around long after their fresh days are numbered. And our experts at&nbsp;Downs TV & Appliance have all the tips you need to make it happen&mdash;because who doesn&rsquo;t want strawberries ready for every craving, any time of year?</p>
<p><img alt="A woman eats a strawberry in her kitchen with a plate of fruit in front of her." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q1_2025/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Why Freezing Strawberries is a Berry Smart Idea</h2>
<p>Strawberries are one of those fruits that feel like a treat every time you eat them. But the downside? They seem to go bad the moment you blink. Freezing them isn&rsquo;t just a smart way to keep them from spoiling&mdash;it opens up a world of possibilities for enjoying their sweet, tangy flavor no matter the season. Whether you&rsquo;re trying to cut back on food waste or stock up during peak season, freezing strawberries is a simple solution with big benefits.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Reduce waste</strong>: Don&rsquo;t let your strawberries spoil before you can enjoy them. Freezing keeps them fresh and ready for whenever the craving strikes.</li>
<li><strong>Seasonal savings</strong>: Strawberries are often cheaper and tastier in season&mdash;freeze them to enjoy the best flavor year-round.</li>
<li><strong>Always recipe-ready</strong>: Frozen strawberries are perfect for smoothies, baking, and even homemade jams or sauces.</li>
<li><strong>Savor summer all year</strong>: With frozen strawberries, the sweetness of summer can brighten even the coldest winter day.</li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="A flatlay of sliced strawberries." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q1_2025/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>The Sweet Start: Prepping Your Strawberries</h2>
<p>Freezing strawberries isn&rsquo;t as simple as tossing them into a bag and hoping for the best. A little prep work goes a long way toward keeping them fresh, flavorful, and freezer-ready. The good news? It&rsquo;s quick, easy, and worth every minute once you have perfectly preserved berries waiting for you later!</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Pick the best berries</strong>: Choose fully ripe strawberries, bright red, and free from bruises or soft spots. The fresher the berries, the better they&rsquo;ll freeze!</li>
<li><strong>Wash and dry thoroughly</strong>: Gently rinse the strawberries in cool water and pat them dry with a clean towel. Any leftover moisture can cause ice crystals to form, which impacts the texture.</li>
<li><strong>Hull them</strong>: Remove the green tops and stems using a small paring knife or a hulling tool. You can even use a straw to push the stem out for an easy trick!</li>
<li><strong>Slice or keep whole</strong>: Decide how you want to use your strawberries later. Whole strawberries work well for baking and snacking, while sliced strawberries are perfect for smoothies or recipes that call for smaller pieces.</li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="A large Ziploc bag of frozen strawberries spills onto a surface." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q1_2025/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries_3.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Chill Out: Step-by-Step Guide to Freeze Strawberries</h2>
<p>Now that your strawberries are washed, hulled, and ready to go, it&rsquo;s time for the fun part: freezing them! But there&rsquo;s a method to the madness&mdash;freeze them the wrong way, and you might end up with one giant berry block. Follow these simple steps to keep your strawberries fresh, flavorful, and easy to use later.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Flash freeze first</strong>: Lay the strawberries out in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. This prevents them from clumping together as they freeze.</li>
<li><strong>Freeze until firm</strong>: Place the baking sheet in the freezer and let the strawberries freeze for 2&ndash;4 hours or until they&rsquo;re solid.</li>
<li><strong>Transfer to freezer-safe containers or bags</strong>: Once frozen, place the berries in an airtight container or freezer-safe bag, removing as much air as possible to prevent freezer burn.</li>
<li><strong>Label with the date</strong>: Don&rsquo;t skip this step! Frozen strawberries are best when used within 6&ndash;12 months, and labeling helps you keep track of when you froze them.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Pro Tip:</strong>
<br>
Coating the strawberries in sugar before freezing can help preserve maximum flavor! This works especially well if you plan to use the berries in desserts or sauces! 
  </blockquote>

<h2>Cool Tips: Keeping Your Freezer Strawberry-Ready</h2>
<p>A good freezer is like a time machine for your food, but only if you know how to use it. The right freezer techniques make all the difference when it comes to keeping your strawberries fresh and delicious. Avoid the dreaded freezer burn and keep your berries in top shape with these simple tips!</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Set the right temperature</strong>: To maintain quality, keep your freezer at 0&deg;F (-18&deg;C) or below. Anything warmer can affect the flavor and texture of your berries.</li>
<li><strong>Avoid overpacking your freezer</strong>: A full freezer works better than an empty one, but don&rsquo;t overcrowd it! Allow airflow to keep everything frozen evenly.</li>
<li><strong>Freeze in portions</strong>: Pack strawberries in smaller, recipe-ready portions to make thawing easier and prevent waste.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Fun Fact:</strong>
<br>
Did you know adding too many fresh items at the same time can raise the freezer temperature and slow the freezing process? This can affect the quality of everything inside! Freeze your strawberries in smaller rounds for the best results. 
  </blockquote>

<p><img alt="Three photos side-by-side &ndash; one with a strawberry tart, one is strawberry ice cream, and one is a strawberry smoothie." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q1_2025/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries/Appl_perfect-freezer-strawberries_5.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Defrost Like a Boss</h2>
<p>Thawing frozen strawberries might seem like the easiest part of the process, but doing it wrong can turn those vibrant, juicy berries into a mushy disappointment. The key is to thaw them carefully, depending on how you plan to use them. Whether you&rsquo;re prepping for a smoothie or a sweet dessert, a little know-how goes a long way toward preserving their flavor and texture.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>In the fridge</strong>: Place the strawberries in a bowl and let them thaw overnight in the refrigerator. This method keeps them firm and flavorful, making it perfect for desserts or snacking.</li>
<li><strong>Avoid the microwave</strong>: While a quick microwave thaw might be tempting, it often results in unevenly thawed berries with a mushy texture. If you must, use the defrost setting and check frequently.</li>
<li><strong>Catch the juice</strong>: Thawed strawberries release natural juices packed with flavor. Save this liquid for sauces, drinks, or as a drizzle over desserts.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Keep Calm and Berry On</h2>
<p>Freezing strawberries isn&rsquo;t just a way to save them from the trash&mdash;it&rsquo;s a way to savor their sweetness all year long, no matter the season. Whether preserving a batch of summer&rsquo;s best or stocking up during a sale, the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.downstv.com/catalog/freezers" target="_blank">freezer</a></span> is your ultimate tool for keeping strawberries fresh and ready.</p>

<h2>BONUS: Tips to Get the Crispiest Tater Tots</h2>
<p>If your tots aren't crispy enough to rival a potato chip, you're doing them a disservice! The secret to perfect tater tots isn't complicated&mdash;it's all about technique and a little extra attention to detail. Here are some fail-proof tips to make sure your tots come out golden, crunchy, and downright irresistible:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Preheat like you mean it</strong>. Always preheat your oven, air fryer, or skillet to the proper temperature before adding your tots. A hot cooking surface gives them a crispier exterior right from the start.</li>
<li><strong>Don't overcrowd the pan.</strong> Whether you're baking or frying, give your tots room to breathe! Overcrowding traps steam and leaves you with soggy tots.</li>
<li><strong>Use parchment paper or a wire rack</strong>. Baking on parchment prevents sticking, but for the crispest results, try using a wire rack on your baking sheet (this allows heat to circulate evenly around each tot)!</li>
<li><strong>Flip halfway through</strong>. For oven-baked tots, don't skip the mid-cooking flip! This ensures every side gets that perfect golden crunch.</li>
<li><strong>Crank up the heat at the end</strong>. Add a few extra minutes at a slightly higher temperature to really lock in that crispy texture&mdash;just keep an eye on them to avoid burning.</li>
<li><strong>Air fry for the win</strong>. If you have an air fryer, this is the holy grail for tots. You'll get maximum crispiness with minimal effort, and they're done in no time!</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Pro Tip:</strong>
<br>
For a flavor boost, sprinkle your tots with garlic powder, smoked paprika, or even grated parmesan right after cooking. They'll stay crispy while soaking up all that extra seasoning! 
  </blockquote>

Tots of Flavor: 7 Irresistible Recipes ( + Bonus Spud-tastic Tips!)

Induction cooktops offer a unique way to cook with speed and efficiency. Discover what makes them different and whether they’re the right fit for you.

<p>You know that moment when you turn on your gas stove, and whoosh&mdash;a giant flame shoots up a little higher than you expected? Or when you're waiting (and waiting) for an electric burner to finally heat up? Cooking has come a long way, but traditional stovetops still have their quirks. That's why more and more home cooks are looking at induction cooktops as a serious upgrade!</p>
<p>But is it all it's cracked up to be? Our experts at&nbsp;Downs TV & Appliance have helped plenty of homeowners weigh the pros and cons, and the answer isn't one-size-fits-all. Let's take a closer look at what makes induction different and whether it's the right fit for your kitchen.</p>
<p><img alt="A copper pot sits alone on an induction cooktop." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2025/Appl_induction-cooking-overview/Appl_induction-cooking-overview_1.jpg" /></p>
<h2>How Induction Cooking Works: The Power of Magnets</h2>
<p>You turn on your stove, but nothing seems to happen instead of seeing a flame or a glowing red coil&mdash;until you place a pan on the surface, and suddenly, it's heating up in seconds. Welcome to the world of induction cooking, where science meets kitchen magic.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Electromagnetic Energy at Work</strong>: Instead of direct heat, induction cooktops create a magnetic field that generates heat inside the cookware.</li>
<li><strong>No Open Flames or Hot Coils</strong>: The cooktop stays cool to the touch (except where the pan sits), reducing the risk of burns.</li>
<li><strong>Instant Heat Adjustment</strong>: Like gas, induction responds immediately when you turn the dial, but with even more precision.</li>
<li><strong>Only Works with Certain Cookware</strong>: Your pots and pans need a magnetic base to conduct the energy&mdash;if a magnet sticks to the bottom, you're good to go.</li>
</ul>
<p>
<figure class="dsg-bg-box">
  <blockquote>
<strong>Pro Tip:</strong>
<br>
Not sure if your cookware is induction-compatible? Grab a fridge magnet and see if it sticks to the bottom. No stick? No heat! 
  </blockquote>
</figure>
</p>
<p><img alt="A pair of hands stirs sauce and veggies on an induction cooktop." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2025/Appl_induction-cooking-overview/Appl_induction-cooking-overview_2.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Key Benefits of Induction Cooking</h2>
<p>Cooking should be fast, efficient, and (ideally) mess-free&mdash;yet traditional stoves don't always cooperate. Gas can heat unevenly, electric can respond slowly, and both can turn a simple spill into a baked-on disaster. Induction cooktops, on the other hand, bring a fresh approach to kitchen convenience.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Speed &amp; Efficiency</strong>: Induction transfers heat directly to cookware, cutting down on preheat times and cooking food faster than gas or electric.</li>
<li><strong>Energy Savings</strong>: Less heat escapes into the kitchen, making induction one of the most efficient cooking methods.</li>
<li><strong>Precise Temperature Control</strong>: Instant heat adjustments allow perfect sears, simmering sauces, and everything in between.</li>
<li><strong>Safer Cooking</strong>: No open flames, no exposed coils, and a cooktop that stays cool to the touch means fewer kitchen hazards.</li>
<li><strong>Easy Cleanup</strong>: Spills won't burn onto the surface, so a simple wipe is often all it takes to keep your cooktop spotless.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Potential Drawbacks of Induction Cooktops</h2>
<p>Induction cooking brings a lot to the table, but it's not a perfect fit for every kitchen. Like any appliance, it comes with its own set of trade-offs that might make you think twice before making the switch.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Higher Upfront Cost</strong>: Induction cooktops tend to be more expensive than gas or electric models, though energy savings can help offset the cost over time.</li>
<li><strong>Cookware Compatibility</strong>: Not all pots and pans will work. If your cookware isn't magnetic, you may need to invest in new pieces.</li>
<li><strong>Learning Curve</strong>: Cooking on induction feels different, especially if you're used to gas. Some people take time to adjust.</li>
<li><strong>Power Dependency</strong>: Unlike gas stoves, induction won't work during a power outage, which could be a dealbreaker in some areas.</li>
</ul>
<p><img alt="A woman wearing gloves wipes down an induction cooktop." src="https://d6y5eqdcxq8w3.cloudfront.net/assets/blog/blog_appliances/Q2_2025/Appl_induction-cooking-overview/Appl_induction-cooking-overview_3.jpg" /></p>
<h2>Who Should Switch? Is It Right for You?</h2>
<p>Induction cooking isn't just for high-tech kitchens or professional chefs. It's a great fit for many home cooks&mdash;but not everyone. Whether or not it's the right choice depends on your cooking habits, kitchen setup, and priorities.</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Want Faster, More Efficient Cooking</strong>: If you're tired of waiting for burners to heat up, induction can speed things along using less energy.</li>
<li><strong>Value Precision and Control</strong>: Induction's instant adjustments are a game-changer if you love delicate sauces, perfectly seared steaks, or controlled simmering.</li>
<li><strong>Prioritize Safety</strong>: Families with young kids (or forgetful adults) may appreciate the cool-to-the-touch surface and automatic shutoff features.</li>
<li><strong>Prefer Easy Cleanup</strong>: If scrubbing burnt-on spills is your least favorite chore, induction's smooth glass surface makes cleaning much easier.</li>
<li><strong>Are Ready for a Modern Upgrade</strong>: If you're remodeling or looking for a sleek, minimalist look, induction can elevate your kitchen's design.</li>
</ul>
<h2>Ready to Make the Switch?</h2>
<p><span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="https://www.downstv.com/catalog/cooking" target="_blank">Induction cooking</a></span> has its advantages, but it's not for everyone. If you love the idea of faster, safer, and more efficient cooking, it might be time to give it a try. On the other hand, if you're happy with your current setup, sticking with gas or electric is just fine, too.</p>
<p>Still on the fence? Our experts at Downs TV & Appliance&nbsp;are here to help!

Sticky, Sweet & Savory: 10 Must-Try Peanut Butter Recipes

Don’t let the holiday stress impede your sleep--improve your shuteye during this wonderful time 

<h2><strong>1. Prioritize&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p><span id="docs-internal-guid-881abaf9-7fff-65c7-c780-9100d804f9f1"><span>The most helpful way to achieve more sleep during the holidays is to mitigate your stress. It&rsquo;s important to thoroughly plan out your holiday activities and leave time available for the people who matter the most. Having fun with friends and family can be a great stress reliever, especially when you&rsquo;re exchanging gifts and sharing stories; however, family obligations can be one of the greatest stress inducers during the holiday season. Work hard to minimize negative interactions--the stress of combative social interactions can add on to the holiday tension you&rsquo;re already experiencing, leading to restless nights.</span></span></p>
<p><span><span><img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/holidaysleep-time.jpg" /></span></span></p>
<h2><strong>2. Don't Put Things Off&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p dir="ltr"><span>The holidays are a busy time of year, so don&rsquo;t procrastinate. Shopping, decorating, wrapping, cooking, cleaning--all the prep work that&rsquo;s involved to host a holiday celebration is more than enough to keep you up at night. Putting all these things off until the last minute can take a big toll on your stress and your sleep. Make that list, check it twice, and start knocking out your to-do list early. This also saves you the hassle of fighting the crowds and traffic so you can enjoy the fruits of your labor that much more.</span></p>
<p><span><img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/holidaysleep-clock.jpg" /></span></p>
<h2><strong>3. Try Saying No&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p dir="ltr"><span>There are a lot of festivities to take part in during the holiday season--anything from bake sales, gift exchanges, dinner parties, all fill up the activity list during the holidays. If you find yourself getting caught up in too many events and functions, it can be a tense and pressure-filled situation. Be realistic about the amount of time and energy you will have to attend such events. Sometimes it&rsquo;s easier to decline an invitation than staying up all night to finish wrapping all the presents.</span></p>
<h2><strong>4. Share a Laugh&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p dir="ltr"><span>They say laughter is the best medicine, and they weren&rsquo;t kidding. When the stress of the holidays has you feeling unnerved, wrap up in your coziest blanket for a funny movie. You might think a good meal or alcoholic beverage might do the trick, but excessive eating or drinking can actually disrupt your natural sleep patterns during the night, making your slumber less restorative. Gut-busting laughter can reduce your stress to help you relax and unwind before bed.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p><span><img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/holidaysleep-laugh.jpg" /></span></p>
<h2><strong>5. Afternoon Nap&nbsp;</strong></h2>
<p dir="ltr"><span>It&rsquo;s hard to unwind during all the holiday festivities. and no one wants to feel like a party pooper, but too much after-hours fun can wreak havoc on your sleep schedule. If you&rsquo;re waking up feeling rundown, a good afternoon nap can help bridge the gap when you break away from a consistent sleep schedule. Plan to take your nap early enough in the day to sync with your body&rsquo;s natural sleep rhythms. If you start your nap too late in the day, you&rsquo;ll find yourself tossing and turning during the night with pent up energy. A 30-minute power nap is all you need to recharge the batteries, but if you have the time, a deep 90-minute nap will have you feeling like a brand new person.&nbsp;</span></p>
<p dir="ltr"><span><img src="https://cdn.avbportal.com/magento-media/holidaysleep-nap.jpg" /></span></p>
<p><span></span><span id="docs-internal-guid-2a4e2eb6-7fff-271e-3b96-53145315fbaf"><span>If you&rsquo;re trying to catch up on sleep during the holiday season or you&rsquo;re looking for a new mattress to help you unwind during the holiday festivities, stop by our store today and we&rsquo;ll help you with all your mattress and sleep needs. We&rsquo;re here to answer any questions you may have to help you incorporate the perfect bed to sleep all the way through the new year! </span></span></p>
