Maybe it's all the cooking shows we've been watching lately but when a friend at work gave me an unknown squash I was pretty confident I could make it delicious. I did a little google search for 'Green Squash' and once I got past the links for Zucchini I found out this was a
Kabocha, which seemed to be more or less like a green Pumpkin.
Let's just say, I am not a MasterChef, I would have been Chopped for this one & Chef Ramsey would have kicked me straight out Hell's Kitchen for this one.
It seemed so simple. Cut. Take out Seeds. Slice. Drizzle with Butter and Cinnamon & Sugar. But I think I needed to peal it, maybe mash it, maybe cook it longer or (and this is most likely) look up an actual recipe. So I tried and failed and learned something for next time.
Did the seeds at least get roasted?
ReplyDeleteYes, you may have "failed" this time, but....you learned the way NOT to do it, which is just as valuable a lesson as learning HOW to do it! ;)
