Winter Squash braised in Apple Cider


 

Cascading Kitchen notes:

The inspiration for this recipe/template comes from several sources. Most of all it’s driven by what I have on-hand at the moment.

Make sure you use a large sauté/frying pan so you can spread the squash cubes out.  Heat the pan before adding the squash.


Winter Squash Braised in Apple Cider

  • Melt 3 Tb butter in a large sauté pan
  • Add handful of fresh sage-ribbon cut
  • Cook until you can smell the sage in the butter (a few minutes)

Add:

  • 2lbs Cubed winter squash
  • ½ cup apple cider or orange juice or whatever fresh juice you have on hand.

Cook it down until it creates a glaze

Add:

  • 1 ½ cups of cider or other juice
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • ¼ tsp fresh black pepper

Quickly cook until the squash is soft and most of the liquid has evaporated.

Splash about 1 Tb of good vinegar over the top and allow it to run into the juices on the bottom of the pan.

Remove and serve on a hot platter, pouring any remaining glaze over the top.
