Cucurbita pepo

The beloved, healthy alternative to grain noodles–kids love it!

The stringed flesh of this popular winter squash makes an amazing alternative pasta. An excellent keeper, you'll be eating fresh squash pasta all winter! Simply bake until tender, scoop the flesh out with a fork, and top with your favorite pasta sauce. Open-pollinated.

Squashes are a part of the vast agricultural and culinary legacy of this continent, with indigenous seedkeepers in modern-day Mexico and Central America cultivating some types at least 10,000 years ago. Along with their sisters corn and beans, they spread throughout the western hemisphere through the loving care of Native Americans and by the time European colonizers arrived on the continent, many varieties of squash were being grown by farmers from the southwest to the northeast. We owe an enormous debt of gratitude to the original stewards of the nutrient-packed, long-keeping, healthy-seed-spawning miracle that is a squash!
