squash suggestions/help - September 23rd, 2006 at 06:42 AM
I've never planted squash before, but I want to try it. My Meme and Papa always planted squash and gave us their overabundance that we could eat. I didn't care for it much as a child (mostly because I didn't like the way my mom cooked it), but I've eaten it prepared much better as an adult.
My question is, which is the best, or most preferred type of squash. I've heard of spaghetti squash, summer squash, butternut squash and others, but I'm unfamiliar with them. Which one should I plant, and which one has a better taste (when prepared correctly).
I'll also take suggestions on how to prepare it. I've got my Betty Crocker cookbook,among others, but I'm always open to suggestions.
Thanx,
Teresa
