Using and Preserving Overgrown Zucchini

[Nanaknows60]

I stuff some and grate it up and freeze to put in pancake, muffins and other things.

dont trash your liquid. save it for soup, or find something like oat bran or corn starch to sop it up, brad crubs. alot of vitamines in that juice

Thanks, I needed the ideas! My mom had planted some zucchini in an out-of-the way patch, I forgot to check on it. Went out there today, and lo and behold we have zucchini all over the place that looks quite similar to the one in the video!!!

I found that I could roast the giant zucks in the oven until soft. Throw away the seeds and scrape the flesh out to use. It is very similar to cooked pumpkin in taste and texture. I usually freeze in ziplock bags also.

That was much needed info``we had a bumper crop of summer squash and zucchini this summer and a bunch of over grown ones...one day they are 3 inches then next they are 6 inches or larger..by the 3rd day after the 3 inch inspection they are the size you demonstrated``very thankful to have found your video``looks like there are more that I should watch too``Thanks!!!!

Zucchini Parmigiana is GREAT with large squash. You slice them in 1/2 rounds, put in collander, sprinkle with salt (releases juices) weight in down for about an hour. Pat dry. Optional breading or flouring. Then fry, grill or bake slices. Layer in casserole with marinara sauce, romano or parmesan cheese and mozzarella or fontina. Bake for 45 minutes 350* let rest for 30-40 minutes and dig in. I've also made a zucchini dip...it's similar to baba ghanouj.
