Frozen squash.

Well I made mistake I guess, or over looked it. I put my squash, potatoes and onions in my unheated garage in a closed cabinet, I figured the cellar is to warm with the woodstove. I told the wife in the fall if I have to ill put some foam insulation in the cabinet,well I never did, I put the potatoes in the laundry room which is cool, but has some heat in it when temps dropped last week, never thought about the squash. Any way I go in the cabinet to get a onion today, and see the squash is all frozen! Will it be any good, maybe just for butternut squash soup, or is it no good now. Thanks for any advice.
 
Go to the frozen foods in the super market. Get to the veggies section. Look around for the sliced yellow stuff, not corn. You have your answer.

Is there anything that isn't frozen right now? They said on the weather that it's colder in Chicago today than at the South Pole. Isn't that where the ship is froze into a iceberg?
 
These were fresh whole squash, never blanched or anything. Fresh off the vine. I forgot to mention.
 
When it thaws it will turn to mush. You may be able to thaw and use as you go, as long as there is no thaw between, but last night sure didn't keep them frozen.

I have zucchini cleaned and cut up in bags in the freezer. Good for soups or cooking. My favorite way to do it is fry a little bacon and onion. Then dump tomatoes, okra, and zucchini into the grease. Boil until tender and add a few pepper flakes. Mmmmm.
 
General consensus around here is don't know. Won't kill you. Don't blanch okra, corn, or blackeyed peas. Biggest problem with squash would it would become mush. But if you picked it fresh and cooked it too long it would turn to mush anyway.

Different folks put up different veggies.

HTH,
