Well, it was quite large with a faint bluish tinge. I treated it like I do all difficult winter squashes: pierced it all over and roasted it whole. It took an hour and a half at 375.
Thank you, Marcia!

big squash
Marcia, at work, had joined a CSA, and the last thing she got was a big blue hubbard squash. Did I want it? Yes! I was very curious about this squash. It was two years ago I'd read in an ice cream book that it's really blue hubbard in those cans we buy labelled "pumpkin puree".

We grew them on year. They are pretty magnificent to look at. Plus, I adore the taste of squash. Are there many CSAs where you live?
ReplyDeleteI have no idea - we had joined one for a year, a few seasons ago. It seemed too much stuff for two people, but was a nice experience.
DeleteOh that's beautiful, it will make wonderful pumpkin bread, muffins, pie, etc, etc!! Enjoy the bounty:-)
ReplyDeleteHa ha Michelle - we ate it with our roasted chicken! There's a tiny bit left.
DeleteWhat a prize! We love all squash here!
