I had just explained how I have a few Sweet Dumpling squash gracing my windowsill and I am determined to turn them into something just as beautiful, but substantially more edible, than they are in their raw state.
I used small Sweet Dumpling squash, about the size of a softball, but I see no reason why you couldn’t use any round squash – a buttercup, kobocha, or a pumpkin (see photos of some common squash varieties here) – to make a very large and lovely centerpiece for your dining table.
Just be sure to add enough other veggies and rice to the filling so that you can pile it up to overflow the top, which, besides looking really great, gives that feeling of abundance of harvest that’s just so appropriate right now.
