Can you freeze squash and zucchini whole?
Online Answer
Yes, you could chop up your zucchini and freeze it just as it is, but I think it's worth your effort to blanch it first. Blanching — giving the zucchini a quick dunk in boiling water — deactivates the enzymes that would otherwise cause the zucchini to become mushy and discolored.
