Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Judy I love squash. I have eaten every single one of those. The fairy tail I tried last year,was sweet like a sugar pumpkin. I was going to suggest you can serve hot soup in the turban squash, I see the link mentioned that also. You can also hollow out, let it dry for a day or so and fill with dried leaves and put some flowers in it, make a table center piece.

Monday, October 13, 2008, 7:14 PM 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. Looks like a butternut squash inside. Tastes almost the same.

I don't remember ever seeing banana squash before. I've not cooked with the Turban squash before. I'll have to oil one up though to add to my decorations. Judy - thelilacflower@ Vegetarian Group Monday, October 13, 2008 8:32 PM [vegetarian_ group] Re: Diane turban squash Re: Hard Squash ? You can eat them. 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@ hotmail.com> Tue, 14 Oct 2008 01:13:12 <> [vegetarian_ group] Re: Hard Squash ? I've always been curious about those turban-shaped squash. Do they taste good or are they just ornamental?
