I enjoyed squash this week in a lovely Vermont restaurant and thought this recipe would replicate the flavors. It was very close to the restaurant dish and very good! The next time, I plan to ROAST the squash rather than steaming because I thought the squash was a bit runny due to steaming. Also, use a standard vegetable peeler to remove the skin prior to steaming or roasting. It's easiest to remove the skin when the squash is WHOLE rather than cut in half.

    Delicious squash, and we loved the flavors from the spices. This is the way I plan to make our squash for the holidays we liked it so well!

    I cut in quarters, removed the seeds and steamed with the skin on - it slipped right off when it was done. Yep, it tastes just like Boston Market. YUM!

    I've never been to Boston Market so I can't compare but this was delicious! The spice combo is a refreshing change from the sweetness of most squash recipes. I left the skinning until after the steaming but will not do that again as it was too hot for my fingers. Thanx for another winner Marie!
