What to do with Monster Zukes
I am a new gardener and I have been told that the larger zukes are not good because of the seeds. So what can I do with them? :?
The really massive ones larger than 12 inches or so aren't really good for anything except the compost pile, I think. They are too pithy and bitter once they seriously begin devloping seeds. The ones that are somewhere around 7 to 10 inches or so in length are a little bitter and begining to develop seeds, but still have edible portions. I like to use them for making zuchini bread, once they are sliced lengthwise and the seeds and center removed.
