  Can anyone tell me the best way to prep this with a view to freezing? Bread sauce is one of the very few things I don't eat, so no idea how to go about it. I'm thinking make it slightly thinner so that I can re-heat gently in a pan and it would thicken up while heating? Thanks in advance for any advice.

  I so love this sauce. It's currently in the freezer (just in a plastic bowl with a clingfilm cover) waiting for Christmas Day when I think it will be microwaved (not enough rings on my hob to do everything at the same time).
