In Season 11.08.14

Winter Squash

Varieties that are commonly available include spaghetti, acorn, banana, Hubbard and butternut squash, but there are many more. Each type differs in shape, color, size and flavor.

Look for squash with hard, tough rinds and the stem attached; free of cuts, punctures or sunken spots. The squash should be heavy for its size - that indicates there is plenty of edible flesh.
