White-Acorn-Squash

White Acorn Squash:

White acorn squash is small to medium in size, averaging 12-20 centimeters in length and 10-12 centimeters in diameter, and has an ovoid shape with deeply furrowed ridges that taper to a point opposite of the stem end. The smooth, firm, and semi-thin skin is creamy white to pale yellow, and the light-yellow flesh is spongy and moist with a hollow center that contains stringy pulp encasing many small, flat, cream-colored seeds. When cooked, White acorn squash has a smooth and tender texture with a mild and sweet flavor mixed with notes of hazelnut and black pepper.
