Peel each section with a vegetable peeler or possibly a flexible sharp knife. Use a tsp. to scrape out the seeds and strings. Cut into 1/2-inch dice.
  2. Heat large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add in extra virgin olive oil. When it smokes, add in squash cubes and toss well. Sprinkle with 1 tsp. salt, cinnamon, cumin and black pepper. Saute/fry over high heat, tossing frequently, till browned outside and tender but not mushy inside, about 10 min.
  3. To serve, heat Corn Tortillas quickly one by one in a very warm dry skillet, about 10 seconds per side. Assemble tacos by spooning in Refried Black Beans, topping with sauteed squash, sliced Pickled Shallots, cilantro sprigs, diced Serranos, and Crema. Roll up and serve 2 per person.
