South Pacific, the Tropics, Florida........Banana trees come to mind. These lush plants are very tropical! But the hardy Basjoo can also take winter temperatures down to -20Â° F, when properly mulched. In fact, itâs the cold hardiest banana tree you can find, growing as far north as Minnesota.outh Pacific, the Tropics, Florida........Banana trees come to mind. These lush plants are very tropical!

Cut the zucchini into the desired sizes and shapes for freezing. Place a large pot on a stove. Fill it with well-salted water, and bring it to a full rolling boil. Blanch the cut zucchini in small batches for two to three minutes. The water should remain at a full boil the whole time. If it doesn't, you've put in too much zucchini. Remove them and start over once the water returns to a boil.
Instructions: 1  Preheat your oven to 200 degrees. 2  Wash and peel your squash. 3  Insert the â-inch slicing disc into your spiral slicer. 4  Alternatively, use a julienne slicer to cut thin strands of zucchini. 5  Place the noodles on a cookie sheet lined with paper towels. Sprinkle with salt. âSweatâ the noodles in the oven for 30 minutes until the paper towels have absorbed most of the moisture that the zucchini let. The noodles will be dryer but not soft after step 6 so you will want to cook them further at this point. Add them into your sauce and let them simmer for about 10 minutes for al dente, or 15 for soft and silky. *Zucchini hold a lot of moisture and will make dishes watery if you add them in uncooked. Step 6 step helps to avoid that.
