Squash, Buttercup - 35 LB - Certified Organic - From Maine

There's a moment when you cut into a buttercup when the dark green rind first opens and a golden glow pours out onto your table or counter. It seems like a whole summer has been stored away in this hard exterior and cutting it open lets that warmth suffuse your kitchen and your senses.

Buttercups caramelize into sweet, creamy mouthfuls when roasted, whether in cubes, smile-shaped slices, or in the half. They can be chopped, cooked, and blended as a base for soups. They add decadent richness when added to curries. Pair their sunshine with aromatic leeks or shallots, mushrooms, herbs, and beets for intoxicatingly complex flavors. Add in a cheese, mild or strong, for harmony or counterpoints. They've been storing their treasure for this moment.
