I'm not sure about the freezer, that's kind of slow. Best method I've found is dropping them in a container of ice-cold water with a bunch of ice-cubes. Some say carbonated water is better, not sure how much difference it would make. I've only had to do it a couple times, fortunately, and it appears to be very quick.
