I love that show. I didn't realize it would be so big. LOL then a lot bigger than a spagetti squash. Smiles. I'll have to look more closely for it. I rarely buy cut up produce, because I worry about the bacteria growing on it, when they might not wash the produce first and then all those germs exposed to the sugars in the squash. makes bacteria grow like crazy. The lab tech, microbiologist in me, comes out in full force. LOL I may just have to stick with my butternut squash. Thanks for sharing all about this and how you like to prepare it, Chico. Judy - chico_trucker Monday, October 13, 2008 10:21 PM [vegetarian_ group] Squash Link Thanks for the link Judy. I really appreciate it. My Grandpa used to grow the banana squash in Mexico. I never see the whole squash in the markets. They cut it up, wrap the pieces in saran and sell them. Those squash are really large and heavy, if you have a whole one you will be eating it for 2 weeks. It tastes like butternut. I bake it, I like butter and cinnamon on it. Or you can steam it and remove the steamed pulp and eat. Chico , " wwjd " <jtwigg wrote: > > http://whatscooking america.net/ squash.htm > Here is a nice look at all the varieties. From the photo of the banana squash in the link above, they remind of the look on the outside, of a spagetti squash. I love butternut squash, acorn and buttercup squash especially well, so now I will be on the look out for these banana squash and will buy a turban squash. It is such a cool looking winter hard squash. > Judy > - > thelilacflower@ ... > Vegetarian Group > Monday, October 13, 2008 8:52 PM > Re: [vegetarian_ group] Re: Diane turban squash Re: Hard Squash ? > > > Those banana squash are always cut in pieces and sold.

They are not really sweet or flavorful like butternut or banana squash. They are more thick skin and hollow inside and rather dry. I use them for decoration, I rub some olive oil in the skin and they shine. To use for a meal they are more bother to open and cook than they are worth, almost need a chainsaw to open and expensive to buy. > That's my opinion of them lol > Donna > Sent via BlackBerry from T-Mobile > > > " strayfeather1 " <otherbox2001@ ...> > > Tue, 14 Oct 2008 01:13:12 > <> > [vegetarian_ group] Re: Hard Squash ? > > > I've always been curious about those turban-shaped squash.

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Or I kill anything off with butter, cardamom, cinnamon and ginger on top of it. Or the food processor does the trick if I make squash soup or squash sweet bread. Donna Now if you're sad and you're feeling blue Go out and buy a brand new pair of shoes And you go down, down to Tangie Town 'Cause people down there really like to get it on SOURCE - Doors Maggie McGill --- On Mon, 10/13/08, wwjd <jtwigg wrote: wwjd <jtwigg Re: Judy banana sqUASH Monday, October 13, 2008, 9:27 PM That steamer must be the trick.
