We've always eaten kabocha skin. It turns really nice and tender when you cook it, a similar quality as the flesh of the squash itself.

@jesseandersen4055 6 ай бұрын

same here! I eat most squash skins tbh. They taste fine, but some are more tough.

Your cut on that Butternut squash was perfection.

When I steam kabocha squash, the skin is my favourite part! It has a really nice flavour :) Also if you roast butternut squash the skin gets super sweet and yummy! Their skins are totally edible!!!

@jenward8877 6 жыл бұрын

Butternut squash sliced (with the skin on), and friend in bacon grease. Absolutely the best way to eat it.

Thank you for teaching me about squash. I didn't know it was fruit. I always thought they were veggies. I knew about summers but not much about winters. Today I'll be doing an acorn squash, thanks to you...

Butternut squash is amazing if you roast it in cubes with red onions, corned beef, and other root vegetables like potatoes and turnips

@sillysallyceli 6 жыл бұрын

Kabocha skin is edible, kabocha no nimono is a Japanese simmered dish (amazing btw) and you keep the skin on and you also eat the skin. I have also roasted this and fried this every time keeping the skin on and it is very good and delicious.

We love Winter Squashes . From Soup to Gnochi, from Pie to Muffins they are amazing. We eat them as filling in Pasta or filling for a Cornish Pasty with it instead of Potatoe. There are so many variations as there are recipes. But the best part is they are cheap, easy to roast and even kids love the sweet flavor.

You can make kabocha tempura. Just cut it (with the skin) into slices about 1/4 inch thick, dip it in tempura batter, and fry it for a few minutes.

So, I planted some seeds from a Japanese pumpkin and acorn squash. They grew many pure white acorn squash! I have learned that white acorn squash was created in the 1990s….but,some were regular looking Japanese pumpkin and green acorn….then those seeds planted grew some white regular looking pumpkins 🤷‍♀️ Anyone hear of that,before? Thank you.

@kevinstory872 2 жыл бұрын

people make cooking winter squash more difficult than it needs to be, also all the recipes make a lower quality end product than the easiest way to cook. just put the squash near heat, the heat can be a fire or an oven. cook it until its tender. in most cases if you cook it long enough and burn the skin it actually makes it better as the flesh caramelizes. after its done cut it in half and salt and butter.

@jbooks888 6 жыл бұрын

Here's a tip that will improve any pumpkin soup (unless you're a vegetarian) - add a big block of bacon (unsliced, just a slab of it) to the cooking pumpkin and it will impart a delicious boost of flavour to the soup. Take it out (you can eat it, of course) before you blend the soup.
