Hubbard Squash

Patty has a thing for squash, but perhaps things went too far this morning when we picked up this 28 lb. (13kg) Hubbard version for $5 (€3,5) at the St. Paul Farmers Market. Needless to say, we'll be eating it, freezing it, making pies with it, etc., for some time. I hope it's good!


This shot also shows context. The thing was creeping out Patty a bit, so she covered it with a jacket.

The saleslady at the Farmers Market said to open it by dropping it on the driveway. It worked great!

Here are all the pieces!

Here's Patty "puréeing" the whole thing after baking it. I estimate there's enough to make 20 pies.
