Delicata Squash Galette with Cheese and Herbs
From King Arthur Flour
Also in our box were three delicata squash and I’ve got a great recipe, appended below, for this lovely squash that doesn’t need peeling before you enjoy it – Roasted Delicata Squash with Tahini and Herb Salad from Martha Stewart Living about 5 years ago. Try the poblano pepper in this instead of the serrano. Won’t be as hot, but definitely flavorful.
You’ve probably got your Thanksgiving menu planned, but if not, here’s a recipe I saw in Epicurious today. I have two delicata still sitting, so I’m making this for Thanksgiving here (definitely cutting this recipe way, way down for our downsized dinner). The tart of the cranberries with the bite of red wine vinegar and the sweetness of sugar – this sounds like a dish that’s right up my alley. If there’s no delicata squash left at your house, butternut would work great.
I was also excited to see the delicata squash because I had this recipe from Alexandra Cooks and wanted to try it. It calls for collards but I think that large head of lettuce will do just fine. I could have done it with butternut, but delicata is so easy. No peeling! (I am such a lazy cook.)
Make this with either delicata or butternut squash. If you’re using the delicata, no need to peel.
Did you see this recipe pushed out by the New York Times today? Do you, like me, still have some delicata squash waiting to be used? You could do this butternut, but you’d have to peel it first.
This recipes comes from the Washington Post.
I’m particularly fond of stuffing delicata squash and have adapted from a recipe in from a Freedom Farmers Market email newsletter. No idea who to credit for the recipe. Try these with your mustard greens or with something milder you pick up at a local farmers market.
One of the great things about delicata squash is that you can cube it up with no peeling. This recipe is adapted from one in “The Sugar Solution Cookbook.” I happen to be a big fan of the combination of rice and lentils. Perhaps you are, too.
Laurie and Will Moore are some of my favorite farmers. They started the Freedom Farmers Market along with Charlotte and Wes and are just lovely, lovely people.
They published this recipe in their weekly e-newsletter today and I am sharing with you exactly as they wrote it: (And a note – if the delicata peel is a little rougher than you think you want to eat, just use a peeler to remove that part of the peel. The rest will be tender and delicious.)
