Squash, Delicata

Delicata squash is growing in popularity, and for good reason. Its thin skin, which is edible, makes for a shorter shelf life than other long-term storage squash, but its sweetness and versatility is unparallelled.

Cooking: The most common way to prepare delicata is to roast it, but it can also be stuffed or cubed and added to dishes. To roast, half lengthwise and slice into half circles.
