My favorite squash is hubbard, the really
huge one that is bluish gray or grayish
blue. I even grew it a few years. I like
acorn squash as well but basically, you
can only bake it. Butternut squash is similar,
but it needs something since it is
quite plain, just like zucchini. I joined
a food co-op this year so I was blessed
with squash on quite a few occasions. I came
up with this simple recipe and you
can make your own curry or use the one in
my cookbook. I have included it
here and you can use the recipe if you promise
to but one of my books.
