Amortization is the gradual repayment of a debt over a period of time, such as monthly payments on a mortgage loan or credit card balance. To amortize a loan, your payments must be large enough to pay not only the interest that has accrued but also to reduce the principal you owe.
Freeze the zucchini until ready to use. Blanched zucchini can be frozen for 9 to 14 months depending on how airtight the seal is and how cold the freezer is kept. After thawing out the zucchini, use it within 3 days and do not attempt to re-freeze it.
Giving zucchini a quick bath in boiling water will keep it from becoming discolored and mushy. Fill a large pot about 2/3 full with water and bring it to a full boil. If youâre using zucchini rounds, add them to the water until theyâre bright green and slightly softened (about 1 to 3 minutes). Depending on the size of your pot, you may need to blanch in several batches. For shredded zucchini, steam it in a steamer basket for about 2 minutes. TIP.
