i just wash them well,chop of anything unwanted,cut up the runners into aprox,1inch bits or bigger,the smaller dwarf,french,and mangeltout peas bag and freeze whole,make sure you give said bags a gentle shake when part frozen so the contents don't stick together,the same with broadies,carrots,swede,couliflower,parsnips,the later is also nice part roasted then froze,same with spudz,cut into chunks lightly spray with oil and roast,instant ready prepared wedges,what i always say is,do a sample freeze and try,i still have some runners in the freezer.sigpicAnother nutter ,wife,mother, nan and nanan,love my growing places,seed collection and sharing,also one of these
