This episode is about courgettes and summer squashes so there are some ideas about how to store courgettes and thin skinned squash to make them last longer, and stop them going off. This includes how to store them in the kitchen, how to freeze them and how to dry them.
And then there are a few good ideas on how to use up a glut of courgettes or any spares left over from a recipe.
