Love how this video is focused on one vegetable! It’s like a crash course on a new vegetable. I’m not very adventurous with new foods so this is helpful!

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

I'm so happy the crash course was helpful :) Going vegan really opened up my eyes to all the wonderfully interesting vegetables out there. Hope you enjoy trying kabocha squash out!

@lavernewalley2657 2 года назад

I like that you put the weights of ingredients, it makes baking so much easier.

@Sarah-un3vk 4 года назад

I love your creative ideas! Would never have thought I could add kabocha squash to dessert. Thank you for sharing your recipes!

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Thank you so much Sarah! I am happy you like my ideas :) Hope you try the banana bread recipe!

Wow! I love your delivery. You get right to the point without delay. Wish more people did this on RU-vid. Terrific, healthy recipe. I just had Kabocha last night for the first time. I roasted it with onions and asparagus, EVOO, s & p. I have to say I don't love the flavor It tastes like pumpkin to me, (even smells like pumpkin) and has no sweetness at all. No "nutty" tones. I much prefer butternut, but glad I tried Kabocha. Now I know. Thanks for your post. I love curries, too. :)

06/12/21: Wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I have a Kabocha squash in my pantry and didn't know what to do with it, but now I have options, thanks to you! ❤️

@danielanovakova97 4 года назад

My dad grows these orange squashes, and our garden is always all over the place, because it takes so much space. One year we also had grown this scquash on apple tree, it was funny to see how the scquash wanted to crawl everywhere 😊 nice recipes btw 👍

@pattywatson7883 2 года назад

This is the best squash! Perfect flavors. I didn’t use all the peppers because husband cannot handle hot. Thanks for this recipe.

@Steffl0408 3 года назад

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Hi Rasha! So happy you think so :)

@oliviamartino4355 4 года назад

I just signed up for Misfits Market (a organic veggie subscription box) one of the veggies provided is this squash! I can’t wait to make this recipe on Tuesday!!

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Oh that's so cool! I used to get a CSA and would always get tons of winter squash. Hope you enjoy cooking (and eating) the kabocha squash!

@oliviamartino4355 4 года назад

I got my box! I received an acorn squash. Would that be a good substitute? I’m not too familiar with squashes

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

@@oliviamartino4355 I think it should work for the curry! Not exactly sure about the banana bread though since it's less sweet and the texture is more watery.

@MrNioMoon 4 года назад

I'm going to binge watch your videos 🤤😍

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Haha yay! I hope you had a delicious binge :)

@StoryeTime 4 года назад

I love your channel and videos but here I have to share my tip, I don't try to cut the kabocha before cooking it, I actually put it whole in a steamer and voilà, I cut it afterwards, not only is it safer, faster but it is healthier AND "yummier" (?), in fact, it's so delicious the squash doesn't need ANY ingredient, just like chestnuts, good as is, fabulous, my favorite fall, winter food! I eat one about once a week!

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Thank you for the tip! What kind of steamer do you use? I have tried kabocha squash steamed but I prefer it roasted (I prefer most vegetables roasted hehe), but willing to give it another try :)

@bxw2721 7 месяцев назад

I would microwave the whole pumpkin for a few minutes first so that it will soften a little bit for cutting. Depending on the size of the pumpkin and your microwave voltage , I would start with 2 minutes at a time. I hope this is helpful.

@noragreene5811 3 года назад

Thank you 😊

@motivatedtocomment Год назад

Roast the squash and then peel, very easy for those without the required upper body strength, just pop in oven whole and keep refrigerated to use in soups and sauces as needed

@lorenzo8495 4 года назад

MY FAVORITE SQUASH!

@seacoastview7253 3 года назад

This is sad. i needed to learn how to cut a Kabocha Squash... but i only heard about 20% of what you said. Stunnning woman with an equally great, engaging personality. i still have no clue how to cut this tough-skinned squash... but i think she said something about using your core. lol. i'll listen again and pay attention this time.

@DanaSellsLA 2 года назад

Microwave it for 1-2 minutes to soften before cutting. 👍

@rachellevank3107 4 года назад

It was divine 😍

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

thank you for the feedback. So happy to hear that!

@sabakhan7738 2 года назад

NICE

@Nataliavig 4 года назад

Oo those recipes look amazing! Definitely going to give this veggie a try. What was that sauce that you drizzled over the wedges? Tahini based?

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

Thanks Natalia! I am happy you're inspired to try kabocha squash :) Yes, it was tahini mixed with lemon juice, salt, pepper and a little warm water to thin. Super simple but delish.

Please provide the gluten-free flour recipe that you use. Thanks.

@withhelenblog 4 года назад

Always feel like I accomplished the biggest task after cutting up all the different squashes especially the really big kabocha squashes 🤣

@StoryeTime 4 года назад

Honestly I don't cut it, I steam it first, whole, in a steamer, than I cut it, it's so much better, and faster, it's healthier and wow, so delicious, the skin is so yummy etc and because it retained all its flavor it doesn't need anything else, I don't even add salt to it, nothing (and I'm a salt and pepper person!)

@RainbowPlantLife 4 года назад

It is definitely an accomplishment haha. Thanks Helen!
