This variety of winter squash is large, oval and yellow, and looks similar to a melon. It is unique among squash because when cooked, its yellowish flesh separates into long strands that resemble pasta. Spaghetti squash provides vitamins A and C and some of the B vitamins. It is also an excellent source of fiber.
To prepare, slice in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds and bake, cut side up, in oven or micro-wave. Add a little water to prevent drying out and hasten cooking. Flesh is done when it is easily scooped out in spaghetti-like strands. It can also be cooked whole; be sure to pierce the skin in several areas to allow steam to escape. Some people find it’s easier to soften the whole spaghetti squash for a few minutes in the micro-wave. Remove, cut in half, scrape out the seeds, and resume cooking. Experiment to see what technique works best for you.
Serve with a little olive oil, salt and pepper to taste. Or try butter and parmesan cheese, or of course, your favorite spaghetti sauce.
