That I have not tried--but I hear it's also very good--except, isn't there some bitter substance in there? Here's something curious--Spaghetti squash does that fork thing, when it's cooked it, separates just like pasta, and if you don't overcook it, it's deliciously 'raw' tasting too. ( clean and fresh ) I never tried it raw though--now you've got me thinking..but the thing I was going to say was: in the last year or so, I have noticed that butternut squash more often than not, does this same spaghetti-squash thing--separating into strands after it's cooked, and staying quite tough...I wondered what they'd 'done'to it...didn't used to be like that.
How did you have your butternut? just forked and raw--where you fork it and then slice and get strands? salt it and rinse off? Marinate it?
