In this #Shorts I'll answer the question, Butternut Squash - Can I Freeze It?
I'll show you how to freeze, store and then use your butternut squash so you can avoid it going in the bin!
So, Butternut Squash - Can I Freeze It?
😋 Yes you can!
🙌 This is of course a veggie that can be stored for ages, but if you only want to use a bit it is really handy to be able to save the leftovers
👍 It is also super convenient to have it chopped and ready to use from frozen!
❄️ You can buy pre-diced frozen butternut squash in a lot of supermarkets, but personally I’m not keen on the quality.
📆 if you will be storing your butternut squash for longer than a month or two then I would recommend blanching for a few minutes. This will help preserve the colour, and flavour. If blanched, frozen butternut squash can last around 9 months, just keep in mind that the quality will degrade the longer it is in the freezer.
🔥 To roast, I recommend doing so from frozen... toss in oil and sea salt to help it crisp up. A little drizzle of honey helps too!
💚 If you use plastic freezer bags, they can be washed and reused, then once they wear out, they can now be recycled in the UK alongside carrier bags at supermarket collection points. Please wash well and dry before recycling. Please note compostable and biodegradable bags should not be put in plastics recycling. Look for the Home compost symbol when purchasing compostable freezer bags.
