About Hubbard squash
Hubbard squash is a large winter squash with a hard, often warty rind, commonly blue-gray, green, or orange depending on the type. Its firm flesh is usually orange or yellow and becomes tender and dense when cooked, with a mildly sweet, earthy flavour.
It is generally sold whole or in cut pieces, and may be peeled, cubed, or cooked in halves. The flesh is used roasted, steamed, or mashed; seeds may be removed before cooking. Fresh squash and cooked, frozen, or puréed forms differ in water content and preparation.
