I'm sure you do like squash! there are so many ways to cook it and flavours to combine it with!<BR/><BR/>Scintilla - welcome! Squash and courgettes are both varieties of 'Cucurbita pepo' which includes what you call a Zucchini and also other summer squash (ones that don't store for winter) and some winter squash - usually the ones with a more watery milder flesh. There are many other 'Squash', most being varieties of 'Cucurbita maxima' which has a dense nutty flesh and stores well or 'Curcubita moschata' which include 'Butternut'. So your overgrown Zucchini isn't the same as what is generally termed a Squash but it's a very close cousin!<BR/><BR/>CeliaCelia Harthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12776686088752602321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-77345819422783062762008-10-26T10:53:00.000+00:002008-10-26T10:53:00.000+00:00Could you clarify something for me ?
