Butternut Squash Recipes for the "Nice People"
GRATIN OF BUTTERNUT SQUASH
1 large butternut squash (3 1/4 pounds), peeled and seeded (2 1/2 pounds)
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Cut off and discard the stem of the squash, then cut the squash into two pieces by cutting through it horizontally at the bottom of the neck. This will make it easier to peel. Peel the cylindrical neck lengthwise, removing enough skin so that the orange flesh underneath is revealed. (Under the outer skin there is a layer of green, which should be removed.) Peel the round part of the squash by cutting around it in a spiral fashion with a sharp knife; it is easier to peel a round object in this manner. Cut the rounded part in half lengthwise, and, using a spoon, scoop out the seeds. Then cut the squash into 1/8-to-1/4-inch slices, either with a knife or in a food processor fitted with the slicing blade. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the squash slices in a large saucepan, cover them with water, and bring to a boil. Boil over high heat for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, then drain in a colander. The pieces will break a little in cooking. Arrange pieces in a gratin dish, and sprinkle with the salt and pepper. Pour on the cream, and stir gently with a fork to distribute the additions properly. Cover with the cheese, and bake for about 30 minutes. At serving time, brown the top of the gratin by heating it under a hot broiler for 4 to 5 minutes. Serve immediately.
Makes 6 servings.

Next Review of the Gratin of Butternut Squash:
A Cook from Expat in the Netherlands on 03/13/06
I gave this recipe a lower rating as it was 'blah' according to my husband's comment. I must agree,'very bland'. I rated it with two forks, as I believe with some changes the recipe may be improved on. First reduce the amount of cream, to 3/4 cup. There was just to much liquid. I will definitely add more parmesan cheese as well (maybe 1/2 cup). And finally I did add sage, but apparently not enough. So I would add at least 1 tsp dried sage (2 tbsp fresh chopped sage). I will give this recipe another try with the changes to see if it will give this dish some umph.
Butternut Pie Crust
The lady said: "I love pies (being from England my favorite meal is pie and mash!) but hate the fat content of the pastry so I came up with this simple but very yummy idea for a crust. Totally vegetarian too by the way!"
Original recipe yield: 2 - 9 inch pie crusts
375 g all-purpose flour
1 egg
240 g mashed, cooked butternut squash
Place the flour, egg and squash into the container of a food processor. Pulse until mixed into a doughy ball. You may need to add a little extra flour. Divide into two equal parts. Use in your favorite pie recipe.
Reviews:
I used this for a chicken pot pie. My family loved it. The texture was quite different then usual crust recipes, but its chewy/crunchy texture was a nice compliment to the recipe. There was a slight sweetness from the squash. I love low fat recipes, and have finally found a way to make chicken pot pie under 4 grams of fat a serving, believe it or not.
I made this again, and i found that rolling the "pastry" really thin helped make it crunchier. It is lovely when used to make a chicken and mushroom pot pie!
The taste is awesome! I used it in chicken pot pie, too and loved it. It makes a very heavy crust, though. I will

Garlicky one sounds like it would be my favourite. Don;t know if you had a look but I'm making one of your wholemeal pizza bases tonight with the curried topping. My husband at work today and its v v cold here so he's looking forward to that.
:-) Lovely to have you back.

For Janet:
Garbanzo Beans or chickpeas are the most widely consumed legume in the world. Originating in the Middle East, they have a firm texture with a flavor somewhere between chestnuts and walnuts. Garbanzo beans are usually pale yellow in color. In India there are red, black, and brown chickpeas.
Chickpeas or garbanzo beans have 361 calories per 100g, and are rich in carbohydrates, proteins, phosphorus, calcium and iron.
******************************
It is said that tamari soy sauce implants its flavor in food, while shoyu soy sauce harmonizes, enhances flavors and bouquet. They are very different in nature. Tamari is most commonly used in food processing, while Shoyu is most commonly used in the kitchen and at the table. Shoyu is best for everyday cooking such as stir frying or seasoning vegetables, as it harmonizes and enhances without overpowering.
Tamari, with its stronger flavor, is traditionally used to season longer cooking food such as soups, stews, and baked dishes. Both tamari and shoyu are good in marinades and salad dressing, to flavor grilled food, and on the table as condiment or dipping sauce. Neither should be limited to any particular type of food because they are far too tasty and versatile.

Other Variations
Other good things to try in risotto are wild mushrooms, baked pumpkin, pancetta (Italian bacon), and so forth. Basically, anything goes. Using sweet corn or red and green peppers will give your dish an interesting colour - although both of the above recipes have a wonderful green colour because of the blended asparagus or spinach. If you want to improve the colour for a wild mushroom risotto, put dried porcini mushrooms (also called cepes) in warm water for about an hour, the water will turn a rich brown colour. You can use this water to colour the risotto - although you'll probably want to boil it down to a more concentrated liquid so that your risotto isn't watery. The reconstituted porcini are delicious!
1 Use half a red onion for two people, or a whole one for three to six.
2 Use about 75g for two, or 100g for three to six.
3 The first few times you make risotto, it's best to have more stock, because if you don't get the technique quite right, you tend to use much more than you need. If you run out of stock, hot water will do. You should use at least 1/2 litre of stock for two, about 1.5 litres for six. Stock cubes make a perfectly acceptable substitute to home-made stock.

Butternut Squash Galette
Roast the squash with garlic and mash them both up with some cheese, herbs and onion, stick it in the middle of some pie dough, wrap the pie dough around it and bake it topped with blue cheese.
Stuffed Baked Butternut Squash
Take butternut squash, slice it down the centre and clean out the seeds. Pack the scooped-out centre with a stuffing mixture made from bread, herbs, onion and garlic. Place it downside on a buttered baking sheet and bake it.
After the squash is cooked through, turn it upright onto a platter and scoop out the squash with stuffing. Heaven.
Toasted almonds also go well in the stuffing.

Thank you very much bookermel - it is truly good to be "home again".
Now can you send me some of those acorn squash I love so much??? They are a tiny bit expensive in our supermarkets :)
My favorite way to make them is to cut them in half - scoop out the seeds - and fill the center with cooked and scrambled/crumbled up pork sausage and pop them in the oven. OR just cut them in half - scoop out the seeds - bake them with the cut side down and then dip the acorn squash out and mix it with margarine - kind of like mashed potatoes - yummy!!!
