Preparing Acorn Squash for a Tagine Part 1

Video Transcript

Hi. My name is Sheena McLeod from Kitchen Connoisseur. And today on behalf of Expert Village, were going to prepare a traditional Moroccan dish known as beef and acorn squash tagine. To prepare the squash, I like to cut the bottom off it, just so it is level and it gives you something even to work with. Now the next thing I like to do (some people like to go right down the middle of the stem) is go down either side of the stem and rock your knife through. Then you come out with one even cut. Then what you need to do is remove the pit, and the seeds and the membrane. That is easily done with a spoon. You could at this point, if your feeling very confident with the knife cut it in rings like this. However, if you are not feeling quit as confident, it is a lot easier to put the flat side down. Again, rock your knife and cut slices that are easy to peel.
