Squash Guide

 
Squash is a versatile, nutrient-packed vegetable with vivid colors and rich flavors. Enhance your meals with its sweet to savory and dense taste.
 
How to Select
Choose squash that's firm and smooth, with blemish-free skin. It should be heavy for its size. The rind should be hard, as soft rinds may indicate that the squash is watery and lacking in flavor.
 
How to Store
Store squash in a cool, dark place for up to three months. Once cut, wrap in plastic and refrigerate up to five days.
