I have cooked winter squash for years. Butter cup. Butternut and Acorn. However I never use butter, salt or pepper or foil. I just place the cut side down on a baking sheet and bake til tender. The squash cooks in the shell. The shell acts like a cover and holds the heat in place no waste! Then you can season it the way you want after scooping it out or in the case of acorn I serve it in the shell!
Face down is the way to go. That way it steams it self and cooks faster. My mother always cooked face up with butter. I think she just really likes the caramelized bits.
Thats great because I love Buttercup squash which in my opinion should be called Potato Squash. It makes great fried potatoes plain with onion and goes well with cheddar and bacon too . You'll buttercup now !😊
@@cityfoodiefarm Squash can be like spaghetti, potatoes or even rice or coconut .Have you ever tried the small white pumpkins that come out at Halloween? I noticed that the texture seemed a lot like coconut so I added some coconut oli and coconut extract and boy was it good .Kumbacha squash is really great too and Jardall pumpkin a sweet yellow fleshed green on the outside pumkin that comes out at Halloween is great too .And you can get about a 3 pound pumpkin for 3 - 6 dollars .
I love using this squash! I love it in my favourite potato and pumpkin curry, it's delicious! Loved to see how you've made it, really easy and I bet so tasty!
I am wanting to begin growing Brussel sprouts this Fall in a few raised beds.any video on this would be greatly appreciated. I’m addicted to your wonderful channel, and will cook my 1st buttercup squash later this afternoon. 🥰
Yay!! How did it turn out? Brussel Sprouts are fun! We tried growing them one year but only got little ones. We will have to try again. Good luck on growing!!
I am a new subscriber. My friend sent me the link because I didn’t know what I had in my garden and I was disappointed I never had any butternut squash. And here I have buttercup. Yay I am so happy.
@@johngaspar4425 because we need sodium for over 300 processes in the body. I do use "table salt" as commercial companies call it. I use sea salt enriched with trace minerals. I also make sure that I am adding apple cider vinegar as well as lemon and to get enough magnesium and potassium. By doing this and a few other things I have lost 70 pounds in the last year.
Wow nice buttercup squash good sharing
I appreciate growing anything. I'm sure your chickens will love those seeds. Buttery soft and great meal!

My MOM introduced us to squash by mixing it into mashed potatoes for a sweet surprising delicious treat.
What a great memory!! That is a wonderful way to introduce squash!!

This looks wonderful! 😊
Wow delicious 😋😋
Awesome video!
Thank you!!
My goodness! Looks nice but I would be the size of a house with that much butter!
You can definitely use less. We’ve even cooked it by slicing the squash and cooking with olive oil.

Awe thank you!! I need to get caught up too! I will visit soon! My almost 1 year old is keeping me on my toes 😬
@@cityfoodiefarm so exciting!!!!!
Here to support sis
How do I save a few seeds for next year? Let them dry out then store in a dark cabinet? Thanks.
Yes, if saving from your squash. Let them dry out completely before storing.
❤
I roast seeds for every thing. Even cantaloupe 😃
Yummy!
What temp in the oven??
350 degrees
I don't love butter! Did you know butter is 100% fat? 3:00
Nah it’s all carbs
Yes, but we need fat. And if it's grassfed butter then it's a healthy fat
@@Fight-4-your-food If you love butter so much then why don't you eat it unsalted? The thing is disgusting especially when it glogs one's arteries..
