Attend assembly A freezer stocked' with fresh Vegetables and fruits givesyou an attractive and nourishing variety of foods to have on hand all year long. Winter menus,-which used' to include mostly root vegetables and dried legumes, now take on new light with fruits and veget- ables that have come fresh from the garden, via the freezer. If you have facilities for storing frozen foods, the home economi- sts with Agriculture Canada, Oct awa recommend that you take advantage of the abundant sea- sonal produce available at the market and in home gardens , and freeze them for later use. Which vegetables can be "'mien? Most_vegetables freeze well; the exception are those that are usually eaten raw, such as radishes, celery, 'lettuce and cucumbers. They loose their crispness on freezing. Freezing will not improve the quality of a vegetable so select produce that Is at the ideal stage of maturity' for good eating, If space is limited, freeze beans, peas and corn. ,For greater variety, in- clude some of the autumn vege- tables, like cauliflower, Brussels sprouts and -broccoli. BLANCHING AND CHILLING The secret in preserving that fresh vegetable flavor is blan- ching. 'Blanching is a short p re -c ooking , which destroys the enzymes in vegetables: If the enzymes were not destroyed, they would cause changes in the flavor, color and texture of the vegetables after freezing. Only small quantities of vege- tables should be blanched at one time. The water should be ing vigorously before the veget- ables are added, and this pre- Summer squash are quite dif- ferent from their winter counter- parts. They have a soft, thin skin and are fairly cylindrical in sha'pe, with a slightly larger blos- som end. Zucchini and vegetable marrow are the two m'bst common summer squash. When buying them, choose ones, that are young and tender looking. The skin should be free from blemishes and bruises, as' these may indi- cate decay. The squash should feel heavy for their size. ' Zucchini is a dark green col- or, striped with black outside., and is creamy-yellow inside. They are usually 6 to 8 inches in length Wand 2 to 3 inches, in di- ameter. Vegetable marrow is .Creamy,yellow in color outside with kyeafriy-white flesh; 'the optimum length for young-mar- row is 6 to 8 inches. Summer squash can be stored several days in the refrigerator before, using. They. are best served with their skins on, cut in half lengthwise or sliced drosswise and baked in the oven. If you happen to have a pro- lific crop of summer squash,in N.) cooking should be timed carefully, so the vegetables are not overcooked., Just as implortant as blanch.; /at, is the chilling of the pro- duce. The vegetables should lye plunged into ice water or under cold running water atter blan- ching, and left there until cold, Then they should be drained-well before paCkaging, otherwise ice crystals will forin on, the veget- ables Miring freezing. PACKAGING AND FREEZING ' Packaging materials for frozen foods should be moisture- vapqr-prOof. Otherwise, if net , well-protected; the Node' will dry out Vapidly in the low humid- ity and temperature of the freezer. Plastic bags that are advertised especially for freez- ing, plastic or heavy-waxed card- board containers are all suit- able 'for • vegetables, The packages should be labelled as to date of freezing and kind of .vegetable. Foods should be frozen as quickly as possible at 0 degrees •F or lower, -and if stored at 0 degrees F, they will keep in excellent condition for one year. For further information on the freezing of vegetables, the Canada Department of Agricul- ture has a booklet entitled . "Freezing Foods" available free. by writing to. Information Divi- sion, Agriculture Canada, Ottawa, KIA -007 or by con- tacting your provincial Depart- ment of Agriculture. A few additional vegetables that have been recently tested by the home economists are listed in the •fol- lowing table. They recommend that the frozen tomatoes be used in imps, sauces or stews. your garden this year, or if you" -...i4guld like to take advantage of the large supplies at a nearby market, the following recipe for a. zucchini pickle and instructions for freezing zucchini will be of interest.
