Put in boiling water for 1 - 2 minutes and then plunge into ice water and refrigerate or freeze until ready for cooking. The blanching process stops the natural sugars from turning into starch and causing loss of taste.

Put them in boiling water. But why blanch? Roast them in the oven. Blanching takes away all the goodness. Roasting concentrates the flavor if you add olive oil, salt, and pepper.
