Freeze them in ice cube trays, empty into a freezer bag, and save them up for an angel food cake or a soufflé. P.S. Do not attempt to thaw in microwave ; ) Don’t pitch the egg whites next time you make a Hollandaise sauce.

If you're freezing liquids (especially stock) and just making a mess trying to get the stuff into the freezer bags, try this: line a hard container or mug with the bag, pour in the stock, and let it freeze in the nice flat bottomed shape. In an hour you can recover your mugs for your tea the next morning, and you've got a nice, measured, stackable block of frozen stock. Oh, and I’ll pass on a tip I think I scrounged from Cook’s.

Two cubes makes a perfect substitute for tomato sauce if you're getting tired of the same old pizza. Pesto is a great candidate for ice-cube tray freezing!
