Hi,

That is one of my jobs today. Tons of the lovely stuff. I've done both, just rinsed and dried it and bagged it up, or a quick dunk in boiling water, patted dry on kitchen paper and bagged up in meal size portions. They both work well. I would just be careful not to blanch it for too long if you decide to do that as it will just be very soggy when you cook it to eat.
