Delicata Squash, Organic

£2.25
(£2.25 each)

This lovely, oblong-shaped squash has a golden flesh, with a nutty flavour and creamy, smooth texture. Commonly referred to as delicata squash, it’s also known as ‘sweet potato squash’, which gives you an idea of just what to expect from this organic delight. It makes a fantastic mash, seasoned with a hint of cinnamon, nutmeg and a nice bit of butter! Roasting before mashing helps to bring out more of the flavour – simply half lengthwise and pop into an 180°C oven for about 45 minutes. This is a real veg highlight on the seasonal calendar.

Country of Origin - UK

Producer

Holm Select was born out of two family-owned farms - M. F. Martin and Bedlam Farms. For three generations both families have been at the forefront of farming in the Cambridgeshire Fens. When they joined forces, they came up with the name Holm Select - holm being a traditional word for fen and one that accurately represents what these families do: traditional farming on the fens. The farm’s expansive 1600 acres traditionally harvested potatoes, onions and sugar beet. They’ve now dedicated 500 acres to growing unusual organic blueberries and vegetables like Tuscan-style globe artichokes, asparagus and this extraordinary selection of autumn squash.
