Eating Peel is a Pill!

Friday, June 3, 2011

The problem with the way this squash is made is that it’s very difficult to eat with the peel on. Without getting your fingers involved or accidentally ingesting some peel, it is a real pill. While the peel adds color contrast, it complicates eating, so it needs to go! The other thing I will note is that the picture below shows the squash being served in a shallow bowl. That was not ideal. Lay it on a flat platter. Better yet, use it to surround the main dish you’re serving, rather than placing it on a platter of its own.
