Storage
Winter squash and pumpkins should be stored in a cool, dry place with good ventilation, such as a cellar or pantry. They can last for several months if stored properly.
Prep Tip
First, remove the stem. Then, make sure your squash is on a stable cutting board and cut it in half. Use a sharp chef’s knife and start with the tip of the knife in the squash. Remove the seeds with a spoon, then cut as needed for the recipe.
Seasonality
Winter squash and pumpkins are typically harvested in the fall and can be enjoyed throughout the winter months.
