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.
While you can freeze just about any type of cheese, the firmer varieties â such as cheddar, gouda and Swiss â tend to come through the freezing process with the least damage to texture and flavor. For best results, keep cheese frozen for no more than 6 months. When freezing cheese, cut it into portions no larger than 1/2 pound each, and wrap tightly in airtight wrapping or place inside a heavy-duty freezer bag. You can also grate cheese before freezing and place it in a freezer bag. Be sure to thaw the frozen cheese in your refrigerator, and plan to use it within two or three days.
