Veggie Month: Opo Squash


Apparently opo squash is used in Asian cooking. I made an Italian-style dish that was a rif on this recipe. I used jar pasta sauce, and included carrots. It reminds me of the ratatouille my family used to get at Rosine's; the opo squash tastes a lot like eggplant. This would probably be good over pasta, or with ground turkey, but I ate it alone.

(Has a saute pan ever been so well documented in such a short amount of time? Or, for that matter, a dog over a blog's lifetime?)

You come up with some unusual veggies. Are you finding them at the same store?

Yes, they all come from Vons.

Lots of unusual veggies, including $52/lb mushrooms! I wonder if you can buy half of a mushroom?
