Thank you so much for creating a video that provides the essential science based tips to preserving as much of its characteristics when Fresh. There are all this videos that tout "3+ ways to......." I don't need advice on how to chop slice dice n bag I need to know the best way to Preserve! And you have provided that in the perfect combination of explanation and demonstration. Thanks!
I once had way too many to even freeze them all. I decided to pickle them just like cucumbers, but added some sliced garlic to the jar. Absolutely amazing, tastes nothing like pickles. Very nice
Very cool. I haven’t tried that yet.
Hello..Thank you for the useful tips. God bless you and your beautiful family
Thank you. Glad the video was helpful
Excellent tips! Thanks for sharing! This is our first year growing zukes! So we are super excited to load up our preps & stores for our future meals! Gratitude, and keep on rocking it!
You’re welcome and happy gardening.
Great Video. No waste. I am going to try this!
Thank you. 👍
Thank you for this information. We love zucchini, cook it all kinds of ways fried, chopped and added to spaghetti and lasagna sauce, shredded with eggs for breakfast quiche. I munch it raw even. Problem is you have an abundance of it in the summer when it's the best but I didn't know how to keep it for later. Canning it softens it. I will definitely try this method. I agree with freezing twice. That sounds right. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful Victoria. Have a great day.
Excellent! Thank you!
You're welcome.
Great video Eric will have to try this and buy myself a vacuum sealer. I didn't grow zucchini this year but grew spaghetti squash which has grown like crazy and taken over my garden.
Thank you Lynda. The sealer I purchased works great. I have sealed a ton of bags so far without any issues. I put the link to it in the description. Have fun preserving all that squash.
I can not find any information about vacuum sealing fresh uncooked vegitables and freeze I think? Or not. We love raw zucchini squash etc. Any advice? I want it to be as tasty and crunchy ! Thank you
Thank you for this video but could you do a video on unsealing and meal prepping with it so we can see the quality of the vegetables? I am so curious! Thank you!
Thank you very much! Very informative!
You’re welcome
You are obviously very educated. I wanted to thank you for writing "you're" welcome as opposed to so many times I've seen others write "your" welcome. Thanks again.@@CountryLivingExperience
Very good information.
Glad it was helpful.
Thanks, I’m starting to harvest a bunch of zucchini and need to preserve
You're welcome
Thank you
You're welcome
Thank you!
You’re welcome
Nice.. I am at that point in the season where I just can not eat that many zucchini, however 2 months from now, will have zero.. this looks like a good solution.
It stays for a long time like this.
Also, from start to final freeze does it take
Great video
Thank you
@@CountryLivingExperience I love the fact that you were doing home school. Have a great day.
How long do you put in freezer on cooking sheets? Before vacuum seal
About 5 hours
Question: I have a small freezer which is already full with meat, etc. Do I have to freeze as in the first step? I don't have space for a cookie sheet. Can I let the zuke slices dry and then seal the bag?
They should really be frozen before sealing.
Hello there. How long will the vacuum packed Zucchini last in the freezer please?? Regards Malcolm
Hello. It should last several years. Without air in the bag it will not get freezer burn and will last a lot longer.
Will the zucchini be spongy? Will I be able to saute it on stovetop with seasoning and it still taste good and done? I just don't want it to be mushy or spongy. Please help.
Zucchini is normally normally somewhat spongy when fresh. I don't really know how to help.
How long for the flash freeze
It honestly depends on your freezer and the temp you have it set at. Could be 3 to 8 hours.
After you vacum it, do you then freeze it again?
Yes, absolutely.
How long, will this zucchini keep in the freezer?
When vacuum packed like this it will last a few years.
Does this work the same for squash?
Absolutely.
How would you use this when it’s time to eat it?
Soups or stews

Cool. Thanks
How long can it stay in freezer?
About 2 to 3 years.
@@CountryLivingExperience that's great thank you...
Your 1/2 inch looks like inch and a half. Thanks for this tip....I WILL be using it.
Video is deceiving. Glad it was helpful.
People are not blanching when vacuum sealing so i have no idea why hes going through this blanching step
I mentioned it was to slow the enzymatic breakdown of the vegetable even when it is in the freezer.
Agreed but the process of blanching is only if your going to keep them longer then maybe 6 months and then it might change the flavor a tiny but but just so people know it not a safety thing its just a flavor thing if you are going to keep them past 6 months.
Yes, I watched one video where they were calling for salt.Turned it off. Made no sense.
Cool
