Flash freezing?

[Kenn]

I just read a book that talked about Clarence Birdseye and his discovery that by freezing meat or vegetables fast it improved the flavor, moisture, texture, and longevity. We usually stack meat in the freezer with no real concern how fast it freezes, since it will at least be cold until it's frozen. I'm going to experiment a little with freezing faster but I don't have anything that goes to -40 for flash freezing. Has anyone tried flash freezing meat?

You're going to need a special freezer to get to -40. Mine, at max, will get to about -15 to -17 or so. What I do is spread the meat out in single layers to freeze as fast as possible (I have multiple chest freezers) and pile other frozen stuff on top of it. All vacuum sealed as well.

But, it does seem to help getting it frozen as quick as possible.

Almost all seafood is flash frozen right on the boat. Crazy to think about it
