Red Kuri Squash

This Winter Squash is sweet, smooth, and dry with a distinct nutty flavor reminiscent of chestnuts (the word kuri means chestnut in Japanese). Teardrop-shaped with a vibrant red-orange rind and dark orange flesh. Great for soups, pies, purees, or simply roasted, steamed, or baked. The skin is thin and tender enough that it does not need to be peeled after cooking
