Cut them in pieces and freeze them. Sometime one grows enormous, hidden somewhere in the jungle they make for themselves.
I usually cook them like this. Wash carefully, cut away the tip and the foot. MW @750W for 2'. It steams in its own vapors. When it is cooler I cut it in the middle, then each strip in two or 4, depending on the shape. My little one (3years) eats them like nobody's business.
I put them in soups. I stir fry them with garlic. I stuff halfs of them with the same thing of meatballs and then oven them. I grill them in slices. I build a parmigiana with the grilled slices. I put them in the ratatouille. I fry them in fingers and eat them with pasta, alone or with shrimps. I fry them a la tempura...
