What is delicata squash?

Delicata squash is a seasonal vegetable and you can find it in the months of September through November.  It does have a really long shelf life, so if you can still find them, buy them and they can sit on your counter for up to two months before going bad.  You’ll know it is bad if it’s really soft to the touch.

Can you eat the skin of delicata squash?

Yes!  They call delicata squash the lazy man’s squash because you don’t have to peel it.  The skin is really thin.  The only time I’ve removed the skin was when I whipped the filling in my delicata squash twice baked potatoes.
