That is about the most common squash around here. I am a squash purist....tee hee....my favorite way to cook it is just to cut in half or quarters depending on how big....scoop out the seeds and strings....wrap it in foil, roast it along with my chicken or roast or whatever I am cooking....I just then eat it plain...yep...a little butter if it is dry or just plain.....then the next day I may scoop out the pulp and mash it a bit, nuke in the microwave, add a little butter and salt and nummy....if I am really energetic....I will slice it and sautee it in a little butter until crisp on the edges...nummy.
