How to Cut and Roast a Butternut Squash
How to Cut and Roast a Butternut Squash
Here's how I prepare butternut squash for simple recipes that don't require it to be too seasoned.
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees
Get a butternut squash
Cut the top off
Then cut off the bottom
Hold the squash upright and cut off all the skin
Some people find it easier to use a traditional peeler, whatever works best for you!
Cut the squash in half
Using a spoon remove all the seeds
Slice each half into sections that are 1/4 inch tall
Then slice each section into 1/4 inch strips
Cut the strips into 1/4 inch pieces
Toss the squash in a bowl and add a few tablespoons of olive oil. Don't forget to add some salt and pepper.
Spread the squash on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake for 20-25 minutes. Every 10 minutes stir and rotate the pan. They will be slightly darker and soft to the bite when done.
