From Super Suppers Ingredients:
1 acorn squash, about 1/2 pound |
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, very soft |
2 -3 teaspoons dijon mustard |
2 -3 tablespoons honey |
kosher salt, to taste |
ground black pepper, to taste |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.
2. Use a large knife to cut stem off squash and then to cut it in half vertically. Use a spoon to scrape out seeds and any stringy stuff from inside the squash. Set squash on a baking pan, cavity side up. If it wobbles too much, slice a piece off the backside so squash will lie still and flat.
3. Combine butter, mustard and honey and place into cavity of squash. Top with a light sprinkling of salt and pepper.
4. Bake until squash is very tender, about 1 to 1-1/2 hours.
5. For a variation on sweetness, use 2 tablespoons of real maple syrup instead of honey.
