    Hey Steph the veggie farm I used to work at as a kid/teenager always washed their veggies b4 they took them to market to sell. Plus u shouldn’t b using dawn dish soap to wash veggies. Use a vinegar/water solution.

      Fruits and vegetables should not be washed until you actually used them because it starts the decaying process

    I noticed everyone saying vinegar and water to wash the veggies! The best way i have found is to pour 1 cup vinegar into 1 gallon water and then dry and slice! I use 1 part flour and 2 part cornmeal and season salt before freezing on the trays! And then putting in freezer bags!

  • @lindamcmurtry4146
    @lindamcmurtry4146 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +31

    I use one part flour and one part cornmeal, with seasoned salt. I freeze mine on a cookie sheet before bagging so they don't stick together.

    I would flash freeze the coated squash on a tray, then bag them so they don't stick to one another. Also, fry them frozen to keep them from getting mushy and to have a nice crunch.
    You can also dehydrate your squash if your freezer is too full.

  • @seidrover

  • @pollyfoofoo8703
    @pollyfoofoo8703 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +48

    Vegetable skins are porous and can absorb that soap. The CDC recommends NOT using soap for that very reason.

    • @Sabrina1998
      @Sabrina1998 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The CDC 😂 like we trust them for anything. So when things are sprayed with pesticides, and as we know, even the so-called organic labeled food is sprayed in this case only with so-called approved pesticides, that is all inside the vegetables since it’s porous? Hmmm 🤔

    • @cabinfevernanna5897
      @cabinfevernanna5897 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was thinking the exact same thing. For the love of all that is good... no unhealthy soaps. Use vinegar... Not Braggs! Braggs has gone to the dark side. IMHO. Rumor has it Gates bought them.

    • @Mamat2many
      @Mamat2many 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You believe what the cdc says? After all the lies they’ve told us over the last 4 years. I would use homemade apple cider vinegar instead. And Castile soap instead of dawn. It’s the chemicals.

    • @ladymolly5143
      @ladymolly5143 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      CDC? Really? Then I would use the soap. They don't want you to wash the pesticides off. These beautiful vegetables might be organic and pesticide free. But if you buy in the grocery store like most of the public does, they have pesticides. If they say soap is absorbed, where do the pesticides go? I would rather have soap than pesticides.

    @Braisin-Raisin 3 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

    I have changed my method of freezing: I cook a proper dish - zucchini fried with onions, garlic, ginger, some garam masala, smoked paprika or whatever. Sometimes I make it in a green curried sauce or mixed with other veggies from the garden like grren beans, tomatoes and only then do I freeze. It seems to freeze better, tastes good even after freezing and I do not have to bother making the meal.

      Put tomatoes whole in freezer bags…in the freezer they go. When you want to use them…run under warm water and the skins will fall off. They will be mushy…perfect for red sauces and casserole type dishes ❤

    Hi Steph. Like the different variety. When I freeze for Frying, I coat in Flour and cornmeal and season then Vacuum seal as they last up to a year and when ready to use, I don't defrost I use in frozen state. Also I treat the others the same way I would a frozen veggie. Defrost makes them mushy for me. I do scrub my veggies but with 5% vinegar not 4% which is now being sold, so be careful and water. I have never had a problem. No soap especially Dawn on my veggies. Love the shredded way, I so need silicone holders. I don't flash freeze anything but I do set up on cookie sheets in a single layer on parchment then vacuum seal. Thanks for the tips.

    Since dawn is so poisonous as people are saying, what do people wash their dishes with or in? If you are buying vegetables from your grocery stores, don’t mind the chemicals, they are already added lol. I use dawn too Stephanie, if I buy from the stores, but most my veggies are homegrown.

    Hi Stephanie. I am new to your channel. I am from Texas. Have you ever tried frying bite size pieces of russet potato, okra, zuccini and squash together in a cornmeal batter. You can buy the okra from the grocery store already frozen amd breaded for a short cut. The vegetables compliment each other and are so good. Season to taste with salt and pepper in your batter before frying. My mother use to make this, it was one of my favorites. I like your channel and especially giving create to your sweet neighbor and God for His blessings. Happy 4th of July! 😊

    What about putting up zucchini for zucchini bread? I usually shred mine when i use it for bread, but if I do that and throw some in the freezer, it pretty much comes out mushy. Is there any way to freeze it for the bread? Could I just cut the ends off, slice it down the middle freeze it and, after thawing grate/shred it for the bread? I really like all the fresh veggies God gives us.

    Nobody's ever told me but I kind of figured out on my own.... I'm sure peeps will be telling me if I'm wrong...lol, but I think if it's a vegetable it needs to be blanched, fruits not. Technically tomatoes, okra, squash, are considered fruit.
    If it contains the seeds of the plant is a fruit. So peppers, eggplant, avocados, straight to the freezer.

    I would encourage vinegar and water also. I am not a scientist but maybe check with your state university extension office food specialist to be sure. There may be changes to the safe preparation and preservation of your harvest. Remember to compost the ends you cut off. Your heart is in the right place.

    Thank You for sharing. Dawn is a good thing to use for washing things. That is about the only soap that will not harm food, animals, humans. It tax the wax off the food good. Vinegar and water is good too but I usually use that for washing fruit. Thick skins that tend to be greasy or waxy I clean with dawn.

    I am new to your channel. When you freeze your Zucchini, they won't be soft or mushy when thawed before cooking? Also, I make many loaves of Zucchini bread, so you are saying I can grind them down and freeze and that too won't be mushy to use? Thank you so much for this information. I grow my own Zucchini.

    • @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249
      @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I don’t thaw them before adding to a dish. Any liquid that is created is liquid that would have been created normally. As for the zucchini bread, you can grate the zucchini and place in freezer bags in the quantities you need for baking. Such as , if your recipe calls for 2-cups of grated zucchini, bag in 2-cup quantities. Label your bags and they will be good for 6-9 months. Then use as normal when ready to bake. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching and I hope you have a blessed weekend! 🤗😊🤗

    Those are some beautiful squash! I have two questions: Could you add carrots to the squash/zucchini mix and freeze? If yes, do you peel the carrots first? Second question: my m-i-l always added flour and cornmeal when frying. Have you ever heard of that? Thanks. I enjoyed this.

    • @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249
      @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      You can add carrots and use the same process. However, you do not need to peel the carrots. By not peeling them they will preserve more of the nutrients. To your second question, it’s a personal preference. I’m familiar with both ways. I like a thinner coating as opposed to a flour & cornmeal which would make a thicker coating.

      I add seasoning when the vegetables are cooking not prior to freezing. Great question! Thanks for watching and I hope you have a blessed weekend! 😊

    Why does everyone have to comment about the Dawn dish soap?
    Geez people! If you don't like the idea of washing veggies with Dawn, then just do it your way instead. But do it quietly instead of criticizing a great tutorial video. There is more than one way to skin a cat!
    If you don't like the way this lady washed her veggies, then DON'T DO IT THAT WAY. It looks like she is perfectly healthy. Washing her veggies in Dawn hasn't killed her yet.
    Social media is so predictable. I instantly knew that the people would focus on the Dawn dish soap! It's not like she is drinking the Dawn. Lamo.
    The veggies were rinsed, they are going into FREEZING temps, probably for months, then they will be cooked. I have a feeling any traces of DAWN will be long gone and destroyed!
    Why can't people just keep their negative thoughts to themselves? I think I already know why. It's because half the human race isn't capable of keeping their lips zipped when they see an opportunity to criticize someone. They think it makes them look smarter than the other person. But it actually has the opposite effect. All the nitpicking sounds foolish and shows a lack of self-control. Just saying. 🤷🏻
    Thanks for the great video! You made me a subscriber! 👏

    As long as they are clean and turn out it doesn't matter whether it is dawn or vinegar.

    So after you freeze the Squash with the meal on it when you thaw them out is it going to have moisture on it?

    • @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249
      @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I fry them from frozen and do not defrost them completely. Shake them loose and add directly to fry pan or air fryer. Always place them in oil away from you as with anything you are frying for safety. Super easy! Thanks for watching and your question. Have a blessed weekend! 😊

    great video....I think you can use a new kitchen faucet I think the one you have is 100 years old...I no when I got my new one that is tall it makes it so much better especially when washing big pots and bowls

    You are very careful to wash your veggies which is good, but you don’t rinse them. You are leaving a soap & chemical residue. For your own safety, please rinse or down the road you’ll eventually developed stomach,intestinal, and even esophageal problems. I know. Have first hand knowledge of knowing people who had this because omitted rinsing. Otherwise I really liked your video

    Why on earth would you use such a toxic chemical on your food? You can use white vinegar or, baking soda or food grade 3% hydrogen peroxide.

    Could you please explain what is the purpose of blanching? Thank you!❤

    • @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249
      @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Blanching is a process that helps to preserve the color, flavor, and texture of vegetables or fruits prior to freezing.

    Can you add onions with the squash and zucchini blend?

    • @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249
      @stephsstovebystephaniethom7249  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

      Yes, onions freeze very well. Chop them into the size you prefer and toss them in.
