Acorn Squash Versatile Vegetable
' . '
v:.
Acorn Squash teams well with creamed ham for a luncheon
or nipper dish.
By CECILY BItOWNSTONE
MP Ntw.featurci)
There's something just right
about sturdy acorn squash for fall
meals. It's a vegetable that has
gained in popularity during the
past years and no wonder. Eco
nomical and substantial, it adds
variety because it can be offered
so many ways.
After baking the squash halves
according to our directions, re
move the pulp with a teaspoon.
Mash the pulp and beat in salt,
pepper and brown sugar to taste
along with butter or margarine.
Two tablespoons of butter or four
acorn-squash halves will be about
right. Pile the aquash into a shal
low baking dish or pie plate. Or
pile it back into the scooped-out
shells; you will probably need the
pulp from a whole acorn squash
to fill one half-shell. Now reheat
in the oven or under the broiler
and garnish with parsley sprigs
before serving.
For extra flavor, as you mash
the baked squash with the salt,
pepper, sugar and butter sug
gested, try one of the following
Ideas,
1. Add a little grated lemon
rind or lemon juice, or both.
Points up flavor!
2. Add a dash of ground nut.

with a dash of cinnamon.
4. Omit the brown sugar and
add honey instead.
5. Beat in drained crushed

orange rind.
7. Omit the sugar and sweeten

Sometimes leave the pulp in
the aquash halves unmashed. Fill
the cavities one of these waya.
8. Fill with green peas in a

white onions. A buffet-size can of
the onions is fine to use.
9. Fill with a well-seasoned

celery. The crunchy celery gives
texture contrast.
10. Fill with succotash. Or add
bits of crisply cooked bacon to
the vegetables.
11. Fill with slewed tomatoes.
You can buy the stewed tomatoes
canned; they have excellent flav
