Transform humble roasted delicata squash into a centerpiece worthy of your Thanksgiving table with a few choice toppings: ruby red pomegranate seeds, fragrant fresh herbs, and crispy fried onions.<\/p>\n

A winter squash\u2014belonging to the same family as all your favorite fall players (including butternut, acorn, and spaghetti squash)\u2014delicata squash requires far less prep time than many of its cousins. More like zucchini in nature, slender, striped delicata squash has thin, edible skin, so there\u2019s no need to peel it before roasting, though you will need to scoop the seeds out of the squash halves before slicing them into skinny half-moons. For optimal browning, spread the cut squash across 2 baking sheets and avoid using parchment paper; direct contact with the sheet pan helps the squash turn golden and crispy.<\/p>\n
