Generally, squash is divided into two categories: winter squash and summer squash. In this course, we will focus on winter squash, named for their ability to last through the winter months. These squash can be intimidating at first glance, since they are often large and usually have thicker skin. However, with just a little work, you can get to the sweet flesh inside of them and incorporate the sweetness and color of winter squash into many dishes. As a bonus, all of the dishes in this course are vegetarian!
