Those who boil and smash squash ruin it for every man, woman and child lol. Roasting with butter, sugar, maple syrup even, salt pepper, garlic, or stuffing with rice, meat veggies. lol, you get the point. Squash is so nutritious and delicious. I am actually making a stuffed pumpkin tomorrow my granddaughter grew. She will like a traditional sausage stuffing with apples like at thanksgiving. BTW you should try a pureed butternut squash soup. You boil the squash, onion, garlic, apple and chicken broth. Add a little cream and maple syrup after you puree it. And dip a good bread in it!!
The only way I like it is roasted. I’ve unfortunately tried it mashed and in soup……not for me. But, I do have family that would enjoy the soup. Mite have to make it for them.👍
Acorn squash is one of my favorite vegetables and I've always roasted them in the oven. I've never boiled and mashed them....I'm gonna to try one on my new pellet smoker this weekend.
I grew up with it being boiled and mashed. It's the reason I didn't like it. Once I tried it roasted, it changed my mind. Most veggies are really nice in a smoker. Should be like roasting with some smoke taste. Good luck and enjoy.
Air fryer, I suppose it would work but seems like a lot of time. 1. Use butter not oil unless your diet restricts you. 2. Mix your ingredients in softened butter and brush instead of sprinkling it on. 3. Poke the squash with a fork. This allows the butter and seasons to penetrate into the flesh while cooking. 4. Cover them with plastic and microwave to soften (about 10 mins ) then in oven on broil to brown the tops.
Instead of going savory, try treating it more like sweet potato. Put a pat of butter in it, with a tablespoon of brown sugar, honey or maple syrup .. then roast at 350 for about an hour or so. Heaven.
@@snrooster cut it the opposite direction after nipping the ends to create 2 bowls after scooping out seeds. drop a good square of butter in each bowl & top with a good whack of brown sugar. Bake in the oven @ 350 for about 1 hr. No salt No pepper No nothing else... I've converted many No Squash eaters with this simple recipe even on canoe trips in the back country in Canada over open fire. Give it a try Eh 🍻

Thank you! Much better recipe.
Thats steaming it, which I don’t want. This is roasting, the only way I enjoy it. I like oil for roasting more than butter, higher smoke point.

That sounds really good. And, not too sweet. Definitely gonna have to give it a try. tyvm
we roast ours face down then face up with bob evans pork sausage in the middle
Sounds good 👍
Some Liquid Smoke, Mesquite... 🤔
Maybe a tad. I feel too much gives a nasty chemical taste. I’d much rather use a smoker for the flavor.
Roasting is the only way to make squash ‼️💯
1000% agree👍
Fire up the grill, roasted gourdes this time of year... 🤔
I really need to, before the cold weather starts.👍 Since most veggies are good on the grill, or the smoker.
use butter and brown sugar
@@gluedown7 Next time, I will give it a try. Ty

@@nickpetkoglou1990 Most definitely. I do enjoy candied carrots from time to time, and this is in the same ballpark. Ty for the view and comment.

That would be my choice.
