Take y o u by the hand and be a p a rt o f y o u r world, I ’l l do anything because y o u r daddy’s little girl. Charles E. Frank. Keeping warm with winter squash B y Lutomia Kuto OHSU D ietetic Intern N othing beats the w inter chills than sitting by the fireplace (or heater) and eating a nice, steamy and delicious bowl of soup. In fact, using Native foods such as winter squash to make mouthwatering soups or stews is quite a traditional and nutri tious way to eat. H isto rically, the word “squ ash ” is from the Narragansett language of the M assach uset Indian w ord askutasquash which means “to eat raw or uncooked.” Today we tend to cook our squash, making it more edible and easier to chew and digest. As an indigenous plant to North America, squash was one of the “three sisters” planted, culti vated and eaten by N ative Americans in the Southwest. It was typically planted together with the other two sisters maÍ 2 e (corn) and beans. Which one do I choose? Winter squash are available from August through March, but are best in season from Sep tember to November. Look for a firm squash that feels heavy for its size and has hard, tough skin. Avoid squashes that are moldy or sunken in. Storage Don’t wash squash before storing. Choose a cool and dry place. Most types will keep up to 3 months. Optional: Cut raw squash in pieces and store in fridge. Use within a few days. Preparation and Cooking Squash is “technically” a fruit, but in cooking it is considered a vegetable. Winter squash gener ally require cooking until they are soft. They can be baked, boiled, grilled or even steamed. They also mix well with onions and tomatoes in vegetable mixes. Once it is cooked, it can be pu- reed or mashed to be used in soup, main dishes or pies. They can also be dressed with olive oil, herbs, nuts or cheese. Nutritional Value Only 1 cup of winter squash (baked cubes) gives you a whop ping 145% daily value of vita min A in the form of beta-caro tene. This nutrient is a power ful antioxidant that may help prevent plaque build up in your arteries. The potassium in squash may help lower blood pressure, while the vitamin C helps keep your skin healthy. Preparation baked whole: Wash squash and pierce sev eral times with a knife. Place in a baking dish, and bake, uncov ered. If using a conventional oven, the baking temperatures can vary betw een 325( and 400(F. A small squash at higher Wirm Springs fndiân A rts And Crâfts ZIBZ Whrm Springs S t Whrm Springs, OR $7761 m) temperature may be done in 45 minutes. A large squash at a low cooking temperature may take 11/2 hours. Test for doneness by pushing on the skin with a potholder. Squash is done when it “gives” slightly. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes or until cool enough to handle. Cup open and remove strings and seeds. Baked halved or cut: Wash and cut squash length wise or into pieces. Remove seeds. Lightly brush cut surfaces w ith vegetab le oil. L ightly sprinkle with brown sugar or parmesan cheese, if desired. Place in baking dish with a few tablespoons of water and bake until tender. Popular winter squashes: B uttern u t squash, acorn squash, hubbard squash, turban squash, pumpkin. Did you know? Currently, the leading com mercial producers of squash include China, Japan, Romania, Turkey, Italy, Egypt and Argen tina. 4> $ GUNS - GOLD - JEWELRY at Cash and Release always looking to buy Jay (541) 475-3157 579 S.E. 5th Madras, OR 97741 "Our Customers Deserve Quality*' ---------------- --------------------- -— - ---------------------------- - Discount Carnet Floor Copering Carpet - Ceramic - Repairs - Tile - Vinyl - Blinds ( 541 ) 475-4434
