Butternut Squash

Butternut squash is a comforting, filling winter squash with a rich flavour that is packed  with nutritional benefits. Butternut squash is rich in complex carbohydrates and a very good source of vitamins A and C and a good source of beta-carotene, magnesium, manganese, calcium and potassium.  Butternut squash is a more watery squash and tastes somewhat similar to sweet potatoes. It has pale, creamy skin, and a fine-textured, deep-orange flesh with a sweet, nutty flavour. The more orange the colour, the riper, drier, and sweeter the squash.

Look for a butternut squash that feels heavy for its size.  If you can push a fingernail into the rind of the squash it is immature and will be lacking in flavour and sweetness. Choose bigger squash for a more highly developed flavour.
