Butternut
510130
The butternut squash is renowned for its distinctive pear-shaped form and smooth skin. Its bright orange flesh, which is exceptionally fine-textured, offers a mild flavour reminiscent of butter and hazelnuts. Delas selects this squash for its density and low water content, ensuring an excellent yield of usable product after peeling in the laboratory.
Professional uses, preparation and storage:
► Smooth textures: An excellent base for creamy soups, vegetable purées or silky mousses to accompany game and poultry.
► Oven-roasted: Cut into slices or generous cubes, it caramelises perfectly in the oven with herbs and a high-quality fat.
► Preparation: As the skin is tough, use a sturdy peeler or a sharp chef's knife. The seeds can be roasted for garnishing dishes.
► Storage: A product with excellent keeping qualities. Store in a dry, cool (around 12°C) and well-ventilated place.
