Can You Freeze Yellow Squash And Zucchini Whole?
Technically, yes, you can freeze yellow squash and zucchini whole. However, it is not recommended because freezing the vegetable whole can lead to a loss of texture and quality once it is thawed. It is best to slice or chop the squash and zucchini before freezing, blanching them in boiling water for a few minutes and then plunging them into ice water to stop the cooking process. Then, drain and dry the pieces before storing them in airtight containers or freezer bags for future use.
