Butternut Squash is a Winter Squash - This elongated bell-shaped squash measures about a foot long and weighs an average of 2 to 4 pounds.
Its popularity is due to its meaty, yet moderately sweet golden orange flesh.
Because of its thin skin, this squash can easily be skinned with a vegetable peeler, which makes it easy to cut and prepare.
Baking enhances its sweet, moist, and nutty flavors.
Butternut squash is usually available from August through March.
