Butternut Squash BasicsвЂ”Peeling amp; Cubing 101Simple secrets for perfectly peeled 'n squared squash. . Seek out a long squash with a short round section. The round part is tough to cubeвЂ”it's mostly hollow, with seeds and fibers that need to be scraped and removed from the flesh. But the long part is all flesh, perfect for cubing. Start by hacking off the ends and then slicing the squash in half widthwise. Then you'll have 2 easy-to-work-with pieces with flat ends. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the skin. Drag it firmly down the length of the pieces in strips. Keep peeling until you get to the bright orangy-yellow part. Once your squash halves are peeled, use a sharp knife to cut them in half lengthwise. If squash is unusually firm and tough to slice, try nuking it in the microwave for 45 seconds to soften it. Carefully slice out the sections of the squash attached to the seeds and fibers and throw them away. Then chop the rest of the squash into evenly sized cubes. If you're still totally intimidated by the b-nut, scope out the produce section of the market for pre-cubed pieces.
