RECIPE NOTES
The delicious delicata squash is the star of the show in this dish, providing a well-balanced meal for the whole family. Featuring delicate squash, parmesan cheese, pancetta, and a dash of maple syrup, our Maple Delicata Squash recipe will not disappoint.
Our Round Dutch Oven is the ideal piece of cookware to brown the pancetta and the squash. This versatile piece of cookware can also be used to tenderize the delicata squash, locking in heat and moisture with its tight-fitting lid and thick, enamelled cast iron walls. A Braiser also works well for this recipe.
Our Maple Delicata Squash recipe takes just under an hour to prepare, serving between four and six portions at a time. For smaller or larger gatherings, adjust the portions accordingly and enjoy! Here are all the ingredients you need and the steps to follow before tackling this recipe.
INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Brown the pancetta in a braiser set over medium heat. Spoon out as much of the rendered fat as possible. Add the sage and cinnamon stick to lightly toast.
Season the squash with salt and pepper on the cut sides. Place halves in the pan, cut side down, and brown 4 – 5 minutes. Flip the squash over and drizzle with maple syrup. Add wine to the pan and scrape up any brown fond.
Cover with the lid and place in the oven. Cook 20 minutes or until squash is tender. A harder squash like acorn or butternut will take longer.
Remove the braiser from the oven and carefully remove the squash to a serving plate or platter. Swirl the butter into the liquid in the pan. Drizzle this liquid over the squash, and top with the sage and pancetta. Garnish with pumpkin seeds and Parmesan shavings.
