Frozen Assets Diferent zones of your freezer cool things at diferent rates: Things on the shelves cool more slowly and things on the very bottom more quickly. When freezing leftovers of chili and soups, place the storage containers directly on the freezer bottom (not the shelf) to increase the speed at which the heat is removed and to prevent the formation of large ice crystals that pierce the cell structure of the food, which can ruin its texture. Also, remember that high-moisture items like stew expand up to 10 percent when they freeze, so leave some space between the top of the food and the lid of the container.
