This is Mary Murphy and you are watching Expert Village. Well first of all you wash the whole
outside of the butternut so you would know it is cleaned. You could just snap the stem
off like that. You take a sharp knife and either vertically or horizontally you go down
the squash. You see that nice beautiful orange color and you scrap out the seed cavity. There
is not much on the butternut, the butternut does not have a huge hollow area it just have
a small cavity that is full of seeds. That is good enough and now you have these. Now
you put them on a buttered baking dish, baking sheet. I usually put a little bit of butter
on the baking sheet just to keep it or you can put a little bit of butter just on the
butternut squash. Turn it upside down. If I have cut them a little bit more evenly they
might this piece might be cooked faster then this piece and they will cook in a 400 oven
for about 45 minutes. You can tell they are done when you push on the outside and it is
nice and soft.
