Squash is popular

By PATRICIA BRAMAN Colorful, exotic, decorative, plentiful, economical and nutritious are words that may be used to decribe the squash. Squash comes in many sizes, shapes, colors and textures, but basically they are divided into summer and winter types. Summer squash is characterized by a soft shell that is easily punctured with a fingernail. Common varieties include zucchini, cocozelle. crookneck, and the straightneck. Summer squash should be firm and heavy. You can identify a tender squash because the skin is glossy instead of dull and it is neither hard or tough. Avoid them if the rind is tough or the stem dry or black. Winter squash lias a harder shell and a higher sugar content than summer squash. This type includes varieties such as acorn, but ter nut and buttercup

Select squash with hard, tough rind and heavy for its size. Avoid those with cuts, punctures, sunken spots or moldy spots on the rind as these are indications of decay. Squash lends itself to a variety of preparation methods. Thin slices of fresh summer squash add variety to mixed green salads and relish trays. It may be used in recipes for cucumber and egg plant. Summer squash cooks quickly in a small amount of boiling water. Winter squash is popular baked, mashed, and due to its bland flavor, lends itself to imaginative treatment. Summer squash is low in calories but contains a good supply of vitamins A, C and niacin. A» 2 cup serving provides 15 calories Winter squash is higher in calories due to its higher sugar content. A » 2 cup serving contributes 65 calories. If you have a bounty of summer squash, it is wise to freeze for use later on. Cut off blossom and stem ends, wash and cut in slices. Blanch in boiling water for 3‘a minutes. Cool immediately in ice water; dram. Pack into freezing containers leaving inch head space. Store at, zero up to 12 months.
