Washingtonian/Gradyvillian wants photo of zucchini chainsaw To Ed Waggener In the interest of complete coverage I hope for video of your lovely wife wielding a chainsaw against the humongous zucchini in the photo . . . - Mary Keltner, Chicagoan by birth, forever a Gradyvillian by choiceThanks, Mary Keltner - 'Truthfully,' as the late great Gradyvillian Paul Barry Hayes would be won't to say, the chainsaw - if there are ary 'un, and it's not just a figment of her boundless imagination - I have not seen the kitchen device.

Calvin Claywell: The vegetable is a large zucchini About: What is this vegetable/fruit? Calvin Claywell writes: This is a zucchini way past edible harvest time. Lots of seeds will be inside. Not desirable to at this stage. - Calvin ClaywellThanks, Calvin Claywell - Good guess - mine when I first saw the things. And even better for you, having only the photo to go by. But we think that if you were to touch it and check it for firmness, there might be a different conclusion. Linda has used her kitchen "chainsaw" think it might be a spaghetti squash. It isn't. It is firm, has large seeds and appears to be in need of baking. The flavor is good. The edible part is firm. No expert on zucchini, but we think z's get softer as they mature. Farmer's market folks say some baking customers say they prefer large zucchinis - that they are better for baking zucchini bread. - EW 2017-07-05 04:19:10 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Farm and Garden
