how to peel and cut butternut squash?
Butternut squash is one of those vegetables that is a little difficult to peel and cut. The squash is hard with thick skin, and it is round, making it hard to handle.
For easier peeling, you want to soften the skin a bit. To do this, using a sharp knife, poke a few holes in the skin of the squash, then place it in the microwave for two minutes.
Then, to peel butternut squash, it is best to use a good quality swivel vegetable peeler. First, cut the ends off, then using the peeler, peel the squash. If it is easier for you, stand the squash cut side down on a flat surface and peel it that way.
Once the squash is peeled, cut it in half, then use an ice cream scoop or a spoon, and scoop out the seeds. Now the squash is ready to be cut into wedges or cubes.
what to serve with Thai Red Curry With Chickpeas and Butternut Squash,
When serving this curry dish, I love to add gluten-free naan bread. The bread is excellent for soaking up the creamy, delicious sauce. Honestly, nothing beats that. Or you can serve the curry with our simple basmati rice with parsley.
