Summary
But slowly roasting whole, skin-on squash until it’s buttery soft means you can break it open with a spoon. While smaller squash, such as acorn, can be roasted whole, they are more starchy and liable to dry out. For this twice-roasted squash recipe, stick with the big boys.
Ingredients
- 1 (3–4-lb.) kabocha, buttercup, or kuri squash
- 3 oz. Parmesan, coarsely grated, plus more shaved for serving
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature
- 1/2 tsp. finely grated lemon zest
- Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
- 3 Tbsp. fresh lemon juice
- 3 Tbsp. unseasoned rice vinegar
