Potimarron Squash



A champion of winter squashes, locally grown Potimarron Squash (also called Red Kuri) just arrived at the Co-op. Here's what Wiki has to say...
"Full-flavored, sweet and very fond of butter and fresh herbs, Red Kuri squash is a perfect ingredient for a variety of soups, stews and casseroles. Make cakes, quick breads, muffins, cookies and pies with its succulent nutty-tasting flesh. Excellent baked, boiled, microwaved, steamed, sautéed or fried, this special squash adds sweet flavor and texture to stir-fries. Its seed cavity is ideal for stuffing."

$1.49 / lb while I got em'. Here's a great little article about Roasting your Squash.
