Yes, just peel them, scoop out the seeds, and cut the flesh into small chunks. Loosely fill it in ziploc bags.

Yes. I have some boiled and frozen in my freezer right now.

This is not a video link, but a link video’s you may want to look at before peeling your pumpkin. It can be quite difficult and dangerous.

I believe the answers above cover the freezing of pumpkin.

@jca You have to boil it first, before freezing it?

Actually if you just cut the pumpkin in half scoop out the seeds and place each half face down on parchment paper on a cookie sheet and cover completely with tinfoil and bake at 375degrees until the outside gets soft about 1hour30 for a med sized pie pumpkin. After they’ve cooled scoop out the pumpkin and freeze it. I’ve found this much easier than any other way I have tried.

Before it’s frozen or after it’s thawed you can put the pumpkin in the blender to make it smoother. :) Some pumpkin is kindof stringy.

@KaY_Jelly Actually, I’m hoping to cook the pumpkin later in a stew (with beef or curry), so I don’t want it too soft and like a puree just yet. I would like to just freeze it for now, and later not have it turn out too mushy when I thaw it.

@2davidc8 ok well all you need to do is peel the pumpkin thoroughly and then cut the pumpkin into cubes and then freeze in a Ziplock bag, I don’t recommend overfiling the bag, I’ve done that with fruit and it’s harder to break off if you need a cup and not the whole bag.

I would cook it first. It makes it lots easier to cut up.

OK, thank you all for your input. Much appreciated!

Yes, like @marinelife said, for me, the reason I boiled it first was so that it was easier to cut. Also, now when I bake with it, it’s ready to go (just like canned pumpkin, ready to put into a recipe).
