I prefer to use it fresh, but it cans and freezes well. Cook it prior
to doing either. On Wed, 20 Oct 2004 09:03:23 GMT, "Carol In WI" wrote: Has anyone ever canned or frozen it with any success? Carol In WI |

Hi: I usually bake it, mash it and add brown sugar or maple syrup. Then I freeze it in ziploc bags in one or two meal servings. It freezes very well. HTH Lee |

... Has anyone ever canned or frozen it with any success? Carol In WI When my children were still small enough for baby food, I'd bake it, peel it, then mash it and freeze it in little cubes (ice-cube trays). After defrosting, I'd either mash it with milk for whomever was a baby at the time, or use brown sugar for anyone else. Most winter squashes are great for this. I've never canned it, but I'd guess it'd work fine. Michelle -- Michelle in St. John's NL, Canada |

I've cooked it completely and canned it, I also blanched it and frozen it
and it still wasn't good. Carol In WI |

Carol I have not frozen it raw but often frozen it cooked - just for the fun
of it I must add that we call it a butternut pumpkin - all red flesh things of this kind are pumpkins here - squash are things with yellow flesh. God Bless gwen -- Gwen Kelly "Carol In WI" wrote in message ... Has anyone ever canned or frozen it with any success? Carol In WI |
