KABOCHA SQUASH SALAD
Kabocha is a Japanese winter squash or pumpkin that has a slight sweetness that we accentuate by simmering it with sugar. You can substitute peeled butternut squash if your market doesn't carry kabocha, but look for it. These days it's often in bins at the bottom of supermarket produce aisles.

Steps:
- Fill a medium saucepan with 3 cups water and bring to a boil. Stir in the sugar and salt to dissolve. Add the squash and cook until tender but not falling apart, about 5 minutes. Strain the squash and place in the refrigerator to cool completely.
- Combine the squash, romaine, arugula, pumpkin seeds, olive oil, and scallions in a large mixing bowl. Dress with the vinaigrette and toss gently so as not to break up the squash.
- Combine the vinegar, mustard, and salt in a blender. Blend on low speed while slowly drizzling in the olive oil.
