A butternut squash usually looks like this.
In terms of how to keep it, as you do with a pumpkin for example, a cool dry place is always good. With butternut squash's though, as they have a thick skin, they should keep for around a month.
When it comes to cooking it, be imaginative! You can:
- roast it
- mash it
- puree it
- make it into a soup
- add it to breads or mufins (that should be 2 "f's" obviously but Blurtit deems the 2 "f" version offensive! Ha!)
- serve with a casserole
Have fun!
