Reddit mentions of Reynolds Kitchens Plastic Coated Freezer Paper - 75 Square Feet

Ok, this is probably going to get a little long but I'm going to take care of you here so strap in. I make sandwiches like this and take them to work. People at work are always telling me how awesome my sandwiches look, asking where I got it, and expressing disbelief that they are vegetarian while saying "you made that?". So, first I'm going to tell you how to make it and then I'm going to tell you how to wrap it because this shit doesn't fit in your average ziploc.

The bread in the picture is what my grocery store calls "Brick Oven Pane Tuscan" but get what you think looks awesome. Bread is the foundation of any amazing sandwich so don't be stingy. Then, from top to bottom, it's whole grain mustard, swiss cheese, veggie salami, veggie turkey, tomato, baby spinach, and mayonnaise. Now, the picture that I linked you to was from a while ago. I've made some changes to my standard sandwich. I now oven roast grape tomatoes and add those to it along with some black olive slices. I've also swapped out the baby spinach for some field greens with herbs. Also, a coworker started collecting condiment packets at his desk in a bowl to trick people (people assume it's candy at first) and it's sort of become a thing so I don't put the mayo and mustard on my sandwiches anymore. I just use his packets at work. This reduces any potential for sogginess.

Ok, now for how to package it. First, get some freezer paper which is like parchment paper but one side is plastic. Some people call it butcher paper. Wrap it like it's a big piece of meat except you only need to do it once. Once it's all wrapped up you can drop it in a gallon size ziploc freezer bag. This is just in case the tomatoes are too juicy and the freezer paper can't hold it in. I reuse mine for weeks so they last forever.

And there you go. Once you are done you'll have an amazing sandwich that people will think is professionally made and will nourish you through your afternoon and into the evening. Be sure to make this sandwich your own. Put what you want into it. Use this as a guideline. Check out my food tumblr for other sandwich ideas. Ask questions if you want.

Cheers!

I had the same issue, but it turns out that you can find anything on amazon nowadays.

Yaaas girl! Cut your design out on freezer paper I found it easier to mirror the image and put the paper shiny side up on the cutting mat, then iron it onto your fabric.. shiny side goes down and it'll melt the plastic on the paper so it sticks right to the shirt. Use a foam brush and dab your fabric dye/paint on (any will do, I picked up whatever they had at Michaels) and that's it.. once it dries you peel off the freezer paper and you should have nice clean lines. I washed mine right away and it looks exactly the same as store bought screen printed graphic tees.

And if my rambling is too hard to follow YouTube has a vast variety of tutorials if you just search for cricut freezer paper 😀

I think a good place to start would be with the Freezer Paper. I had a difficult time finding it, but the Reynolds paper worked really well for me.

Try a local butcher's shop. They often don't have clear freezer paper, but brown unbleached freezer paper. It took a lot of work to find somewhere that actually has freezer paper out here in BC. Also, Amazon looks like it sells it in Canada, but it is expansive as balls

For meats, I use freezer paper. I've never had any problems with it. Just get tape that will hold up in the freezer and mark the package with a sharpie so you know what's in it and when you put it in the freezer.

You can find Freezer Paper on Amazon!

As for how long you left the bleach on: I don't take NEARLY that much time! I spritz a pretty moderate amount of 50/50 on, let it soak for maybe 5-10 seconds, dab it off, and repeat. Do that for like three or four times, and it should work a lot better. When you're done, dunk it in water.

The bleedthrough, I guarantee you, is being worsened by the fact that you left it on for 30 minutes.

this was super easy to make. Buy a regular black t-shirt, a spray bottle with 50/50 water bleach mix and freezer paper.

you should be able to find this at your local grocery store next to the other baking items.

Here is a great video on how to do this yourself.

here is the stencil i used

i did a reverse spray for this, because otherwise it would look like Conan with a mustache. So I cut out the hair and mustache and ironed those pieces to the shirt so the bleach goes around them and they stay black.

This is a very easy stencil and easy hobby, I have made 20+ bleachshirts for friends as gifts. The best part is they are original and the person getting them is always happy to get an original shirt.

Get it from amazon

Freezer paper is sold in grocery and craft stores. The pattern is traced to the matte side and the shiny side is lightly ironed to the wrong side of the fabric. Silk is best cut in a single layer. Charmeuse has a shiny and matte side.

Slippery fabric is hard to cut well. One method to control it is to use freezer paper. You lightly iron (just a touch) to the wrong side of the fabric, trace the pattern (or you can trace it on beforehand) and cut. I've found that with bigger pieces it's not necessary to cover the entire piece of fabric with freezer paper; it's the cutting lines that matter, so if there are some gaps in the middle it's all right. Remove the freezer paper right after cutting. If you're going to cut out more pieces, the free freezer paper patterns can be reused.

Microserrated shears also work extremely well if you're willing to buy a pair.

The method with the thread that you used to turn the loops was fine. You can also use a loop turner with a hook or a set of sticks like this. I prefer that the latter.

I bought mine from Amazon since I couldn't find it in the grocery store. It's like normal paper on one side and kind of waxy on the other side. The waxy side fuses with the shirt and the paper side is really easy to draw on.

I like to take any bulk meat and break it down into meal sized portions, then freeze each portion separately. For example if I buy 8 pounds of ground beef, I'll use 1lb right away and then break the rest of it up into 7 1lb portions and freeze each separately. If I buy a pack of 12 chicken breasts, I prepare one right away, and wrap the other 11 individually. That way you never have to defrost then refreeze the meat, which is really damaging to the meat.

When freezing meat, the best method is to wrap it in freezer paper then place it inside a plastic bag. Make sure to always write the contents and the date you froze them on the bag. That way you won't end up with a pound of hamburger hiding in your fridge for five years.

I've not tried parchment paper before, so I don't know. I've used wax paper once which was a terrible mistake, and since then I've ONLY used freezer paper. You can get it through Amazon Canada here. I don't know how much cash you have, or how expense this is vs USD, but this will make you a goodly number of shirts (depending on big of a design you use. I've done 4 shirts so far, and I easily have enough paper for 7-10 more remaining.
