How do I pick a good butternut squash?

Answer by  costessey (39)

Fistly select those weighting about 2lbs. Secondly look for a good orange colour with an absence of green tinge. Thirdly select for firm feel with a hollow sound when tapped.

Butternut squash is in season right now. Finding the best butternut squash can be difficult since this is a very firm veggie. The peel should be dark green and firm.

I pick the one that is the goldish and has no blemishes. They should be hard and not soft to the touch.
