DELICATA SQUASH AND CARMELIZED SHALLOT SALAD
I N G R E D I E N T S
1 delicata squash from Filaree Farms
½ POUND shallots from Elithorp Farm
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
2 TBSP red wine vinegar
1 TBSP fresh sage, sliced thinly
1 TBSP butter
P R O C E S S
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Slice the ends off the delicata squash and discard. Then slice the squash to create ½ inch rounds. Using a spoon, remove the seeds and discard.
Place the squash rounds on a baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Bake for 20-30 minutes until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
Meanwhile, remove the skins from the shallots and slice into thin, ¼ inch rounds. On medium-low heat, sautee the shallots with olive oil until caramelized. This can take 15 to 20 minutes. Add a sprinkle of salt and pepper, red wine vinegar, fresh sage, and butter to finish.
Add delicata squash and shallots to a serving platter. Feast with the seasons!
