How to tame the intimidating winter squash
A home cooking guide shows a method to roast whole winter squash uncut for easy, soft flesh. After cooling, the squash is scooped, mashed with butter, salt, and sage, delivering rich flavor and stress-free prep. Variations include brown butter, maple, spices, and savory toppings.
Rasp style grater shines in the kitchen and beyond
The rasp style grater or zester, often Microplane, is a small, affordable tool with a blade of fine U shaped teeth. It excels at citrus zest, ginger, garlic, nutmeg, and garnishes like Parmigiano Reggiano. Tips include smoothing cake edges, removing burned bits, shaving wine corks to reseal, and grating chili peppers for heat.
