Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hi Shawn No that is a bland looking squash. Only ever seen not tasted. This is a marrow http://uk.wrs./;_ylt=AuQREmsUvStm.xUkkzJfKZFWBQx.;_ylu=X3oDMTA4NDgyNWN0\ BHNlYwNwcm9m/SIG=12iksegiu/EXP=1128867794/**http%3A%2F%2Fwww.graysfarm.co.uk%2FG\ allery1%2Fpages%2FMarrow.htm well hope it is courtesy of image search.

Guest guest Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 Hi Chris, that is huge! A big ole zucchini. http://forums.gardenweb.com/forums/giants/gal0701440518174.jpg The picture I sent previously is something that is sometimes called a spaghetti squash (over here). I think what I do with that is something similar to your marrow recipe that you mentioned (sort of). I cut the squash in half and steam both or place in the oven as you mentioned. It moistens the fibers (?) and they become loose (looking stringy and I suppose like mini spaghetti pasta - as per the name). You can then add butter and herbs or add a marinara sauce to it. Your mixture sounds a bit more intriguing and exotic though. lol. Shawn On 10/8/05, Chris Jones wrote: > > Hi Shawn > > No that is a bland looking squash.
