Table

Acorn Squash

Winter squash varieties like acorn boast a tender texture and have many uses—from crisp roasted seeds to comforting soup.

Roasted halves hold grains, stuffing, or soup and go straight from oven to table.

Whole acorn squash keeps for weeks at room temperature, so it can decorate the table before it's cooked.

The skin turns tender when roasted, so wedges can be served and eaten as they are.

Maple, sage, brown butter, and cinnamon bring out its mild, nutty sweetness.

Roasted seeds add crunch to salads and soups, so nothing goes to waste.
