Quick question about acorn squash & about Spaghetti Squash...

I love acorn squash. I bake it with the skin on. then either scoup the flesh out of the skin or add butter and brown sugar and let the person eating it scoup it out of the skin. The skin or shell is too hard to eat. I have a hard time cutting the acorn squash so I bake it then remove the seeds seperatly from the flesh. spaghetti squash can be a substitute for spaghetti but I like to just add salt pepper and butter. When it is done it is stringy like spaghetti noodles. I also bake the spaghetti squash the same way I do the acorn squash. It is easier to bake both these squashes than to try to peel them I bake mine at 350 degrees and they are done whem they are soft ans collapse to the touch.

We saute squash as vegtable or make soup outof it. anyway i m not familiar about making it spaghetti. am interested on the recipe.

no, you don't eat the skin of the acorn or spaghetti squash - unless you pick the spaghetti squash in the early summer... here's a link to where I learned to cook spaghetti squash... http://www.fabulousfoods.com/index.php?option=com_resource&controller=article&category_id=224&article=19943

I microwave the acorn squash on high for a couple minutes so I can cut it in half. Scoop out the seeds and put face down in a dish with about an inch of water at 350 for 30-40 minutes. Then turn them over, put some butter and brown sugar and nutmeg in the scooped out place and bake another 10 minutes. If you let them go a little longer they absorb the flavor a bit so the whole thing is sweet and tender. I don't know about spaghetti squash, I've never wanted to try it!
