Winter Squash Tips
by Linda Dansbury

As much as I love winter squash, I hate peeling it prior to cooking. I recently learned of a trick to make it easier. Place the entire squash in oven for 5-10 minutes at whatever temperature you are roasting it. Remove it from oven, being careful not to get burned. You will find that it is so much easier to cut through and peel. I have also seen that you can microwave on high for 5 minutes, but I haven't tried that method myself yet.
