ROASTED DELICATA SQUASH
Thick rings of Roasted Delicata Squash will be an impressive side dish on your Thanksgiving table. There is a rich, delicious crust of caramelized goodness on every slice that tastes just amazing. Roasting the squash in a hot oven brings out the sugar in the flesh and caramelizes the slices. The firmer texture of the skin compliments the sweet, velvety texture of the squash.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 450°F.
- Lightly spray 2 large nonstick baking sheets with oil.
- Wash the squash under the cold water tap to remove any soil particles, pat dry.
- With a sharp knife, trim 1/4-inch off the ends of each squash and cut across into 1-inch slices/rings.
- Using a serrated knife, grapefruit spoon or paring knife scrape around the inside of each ring, removing the seeds and membranes.
- Add the slices to a large bowl or a closable plastic bag and drizzle olive oil over them making sure each slice is coated with the oil.
- Lay the slices flat on the prepared baking sheets and bake in the center of the oven until you see light caramelizing around the bottom edges, about 15-18 minutes, flip the slices and roast another 5-6 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and transfer to a serving plate, garnish with the salt flakes, chopped parsley and rosemary sprigs.

SAVORY DELICATA SQUASH RINGS
I find that some squash are so hard to peel, but this recipe dispenses with that step. Just cook the rings with the peel on. It's quite soft once cooked. :)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400'F.
- Cut the ends off the squash. Then, using a fillet knife clean out the insides of the squash, remove the stringy parts and the seeds. Then cut them into 1/2" pieces. Try to be consistent. The rings will cook much better if they are the same size.
- If all the insides don't come out when you're using the knife you can clean the rest out once they are cut in rings.
- Put the rings in a large bowl and pour a good portion of olive oil on them, toss to coat. Add the salt, pepper, shallot and thyme and toss again.
- Get yourself a large oven tray with sides and oil it using one of the squash rings, this works really good. Use the oil from the bowl, then put the rings on on the tray in one layer.
- Put in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. If you want, flip the rings over 1/2 way through the cooking process to ensure even browing. Serve along with rice or meat.
- Enjoy!
