Delicata Squash

A vinegar-and-chile glaze adds heat to sweet squash, spicing up the traditional Thanksgiving flavor profile.

Roasting the pancetta in one large piece renders out most of the fat, making it easy to dice into perfect ¼" pieces.

This would work with any other winter squash—acorn and delicata don't even have to be peeled.

This stew calls for water instead of stock to be added. The pork shoulder will create a rich cooking liquid on its own.

There's no need to peel acorn, kabuki, or delicate squash; their skins are tender and edible, and add extra color and texture to the dish.

Use this toasted-hazelnut vinaigrette on any fall salad.
