I did not even weigh the butternut squash I had. It was impossible to cut it into wedges myself to roast, so I roast them in the. oven at 400 degrees for one hour 15 minutes .Iit was soft with the skin was slightly charred as well. I discard the few seeds and some of the stringy stuff but have not tried to cook it . Perhaps,I will just puree it tomorrow ( very busy day next 2 days with contractors here) and have it as a side dish with baked or grilled wild salmon. I tasted it and it was sweet! I had been giving away my butternut squash bec they were really difficult for me to cut up. as well as the fact that I am working non stop on those evening primrose. Extension Service told me I had to dig the roots as far as 6 inches below so they will not return. I did dig that far down and found some roots there. I can only manage 10 square foot a day. I still have one butternut squash on my counter that I want to roast with beets next week.
