I have no doubt I will have better luck offering them to the neighbours
than I've had with the excess runner beans. :-)

Have you ever frozen them?
I used to just drop them into a chest freezer, then use them later instead
of tinned tomatoes.

Not whole no. We usually make them into Pasatta and freeze in bags that can
then be used to make soup or in various, mainly pasta, dishes.
