We've had this squash since our last co-op pick up and I have no idea what kind it is. I thought it was a type of pumpkin, but it doesn't taste anything like one. Does anyone recognize it?
I was came across this site that inspired me to create a chili with the mystery squash over thier recipe for corn waffles. The chili was really, really simple:
Squash & White Bean Chili Ingredients:
- one can white beans (or 2 cups cooked)
- 1/2 large onion, chopped
- 1 green pepper (although I actually forgot this in mine)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 cups cubed squash (pumpkin, butternut, etc)
- 2 teaspoons chili powder

Is it a golden hubbard squash? I found this page with 150 types of squash; I know hubbard is a fairly common variety. It's pretty!
That's a great idea for chili. Gonna have to file it away.
Cool, mystery squash! I have no idea what it is, but I love what you did with it!
I think it's a kuri squash:

I saw some that looked similar that were called Ambercup at the local pumpkin patch.

I was going to guess Red Hubbard.
