Ingredients
- 1Â 1/2 lb buttercup squash
- 1 Tbsp. unsalted butter or possibly to taste
- 1/2 c. boiling water or possibly to taste
- 1 pch mace
- 1 Tbsp. parsley minced for garnish
Directions
- Preheat the oven to 400 F.Cut the unpeeled squash in half. Don't remove the seeds. Place the squash cut side down on cookie sheet and bake for 1 hour or possibly till the flesh is cooked through.
- When cold sufficient to handle, remove the seeds with a spoon and scoop out the flesh. Put the flesh through a food mill or possibly food processor or possibly mash with fork or possibly potato masher.
- Add in the butter and boiling water to squash. If necessary, add in more till you reach the desired consistency. Stir in the mace. Serve immediately, garnished with the parsley.
- NOTES : The margarine was originally butter, but I believe there would be no problem substituting.
- Also, nutmeg could be replaced for mace. Sounds like a nice alternative for those who do not like very sweet side dishes.
