Trumpet Squash

 

My next door neighbour dropped off this trumpet squash (tromboncino) as my sister googled.  I had never seen this type of squash before.  She said it is good in soups or stir fries.  I googled that it tastes like a mixture of zucchini and butternut squash and have seen recipes where you can roast it.  There is also a bag of garlic chives.  I offered these to my friend S as her son loves these chives.

  6. Ahhhh…. Yes. Garlic chives! I’ve got two patches of them in my garden and just use it for miso soup. I also give them to our Buddhist priest from Japan. He loves them.
