I think the original poster meant the relatively low heat conduction of
liquid N2, which causes boiling around the crystal immediately after
plunging.

The best way to freeze things is to put a small container of liquid ethane
or propane into a liquid N2 bowl, and plunge into the ethane/propane (this
methods was suggested earlier).
