How do you cook frozen summer squash?

Answer 1

To cook anything, I follow one of the following steps: 1) look in Betty Crocker Cookbook or the Joy of Cooking or 2) Google the item I want to cook, and see which site seems to have simplest recipe (Kitchen assistant is good) Yellow squash can be steamed, baked, or roasted on a baking sheet in the oven or on the grill. You can use it in casseroles, and I saw several recipes listed on the web. Here is a simple, plain way to cook it: Slice onion, peel and chop one or two cloves of garlic, wash and slice the squash into 1/4" slices (thickness is not important, just try to make them about the same.) Place all into a pot or pan with a little water (maybe 1/2 cup): steam until tender. I would not even add salt and pepper, but you probably would want to.

Answer 2

The question is not clear, because squash need not be frozen before frying. Foods are frozen to preserve them for later use. Frozen squash would need to be defrosted before frying.

Answer 3

The results of "frozen, then fried yellow squash will never even remotely approach the flavor and texture of just picked, fresh,breaded and oil-fried southern squash----just ask ANY southerner!! " However, if you do pick it fresh, simply wash and scrub the squash well, then cut into thick(approx.1/2 to 3/4 inch slices. Then, BLANCH the raw, cut squash pieces in boiling water for about one minute(PLEASE refer to a professional cookbook at this time, or simply a website for Basic BLANCHING techiques for raw vegetables. But, if you so choose to just play it by ear-the old fashioned way-throw the raw slices into BOILING water for between one and a half and two minutes--then remove them immediately with a strainer and rinse under faucet with cold water.Dry and drain blanched slices as much as possible on layers of paper towels--or even cheaper-napkins. Next, simply spread the thick dry slices on a cookie sheet and "flash freeze" in the freezer----afterwards, its fine to just transfer them into a regular freezer bag. AND You're done! When you wish to cook them, remove from freezer, let thaw on paper towels, absorb any excess moisture you can, then just batter with a combo flour and cornmeal and fry as usual.

If by "patty" you mean pattypan squash, the little squashes that look like pale green flying saucers, what I like to do is make stuffed pattypans.

1. Boil the squash until tender, about 20 minutes.
2. Scoop out the insides to form a small cup.
3. Chop the pattypan flesh and sauté in a pan with onions and garlic and some chopped bell peppers in olive oil. Add some herbs, too; my favorites are basil and oregano.
4. Blend in a handful of bread crumbs if desired.
5. Spoon some of the stuffing mixture back into each pattypan.
6. Sprinkle grated cheese over the top (your preference as to which cheese--I've used Parmesan, asiago, and Cheddar with good results).
7. Bake at 375 for about 30 minutes.

One stuffed pattypan is one serving. Bon appétit!
