Baked Squash
Ingredients
Directions
The book gives no oven temperature. The 350°F (175°C) in the steps was added when the recipe was transcribed, as a starting point.
Cut the squash into pieces and scrape out the insides.
Bake in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, depending on thickness.
Serve with salt and butter, similar to sweet potatoes.
Transcribed from a scanned cookbook and modernised for today's kitchens. Where the book gave no heat or time, or said "a moderate oven", the temperatures and times here may be modern equivalents rather than the book's own figures.
