Sharing the best way to cut and cook spaghetti squash if you want long pasta-like strands and spaghetti squash that isn’t watery! Just cut the squash widthwise, into rings and roast it.
HOW TO COOK SPAGHETTI SQUASH RECIPE:
1 large spaghetti squash
1-2 teaspoons olive oil
sea salt and pepper
Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Slice ends off the squash, then cut widthwise into halves or rings. If you cut the squash into rings, try to make the rings about the same size, around 1-1/2 inches.
Use a spoon to scrape out the seeds. (I love using a grapefruit spoon for this.)
2. Place squash on rimmed baking sheet. Use hands to coat each ring with a little olive oil, salt and pepper.
3. Bake for 30-40 minutes, flipping rings once about 15 minutes in.
4. Allow to cool for about 15 minutes, then peel the skin away and separate the strands into long spaghetti noodles using a fork.

I made spaghetti squash as pasta substitute for the 1st time recently, and I used your video as my guide to cutting/cooking it. All I can say is THANK YOU! Loved the long the strands, truly felt I was having pasta. I shared this video with a coworker and she loved your method as well. 😊

If you put all your seeds, peels, whatever in a blender and water it down a bit. Pour on your outdoor plants and they will LOVE you... best liquid fertilizer.

It's called compost. You have to let it rot first to be of any good. You don't want that decomposing around your shrubs I wouldn't add the seeds you can end up with odd less of squash.

Your technique works the best of any I'VE tried. Thank you so much. Another bonus I have to share, is since I don't try to eat an entire squash, I was able to reheat in the microwave and each ring made a perfect portion for a great meal. Thank you again.😊👍👀

Just tried it. I'm diabetic and can't have regular pasta. It was so simple and worked so well i can't believe it was that easy. i HATE things that try to be LIKE something you really miss but leave you missing the real thing more - This was not that at all. It's not identical to pasta but it's every bit as satisfying in it's own right and simple as hell. Thank you so much - with my home made diabetic sauce this was a grand slam and now for the first time in years "pasta" and "spaghetti" is back on the menu.

@BabyandLittleGuy 4 года назад

Brittani, I LIKE this method! You cut it up ahead of time, so that you don't have to do a big scoop of seeds, it's broken into groups. 😀 I never thought of roasting the seeds, I am going to do that. I like the way you thoroughly explain the "how" and the "why." I am now a (new) subscriber! 😀😀

This is a really good idea! Nice for portioning it out too. I've also found that microwaving the squash for a bit before cutting makes it a lot easier. You have to poke holes in it like a potato first

@jp-hh9xq 2 года назад

Hi. I found this video last year and made it and LOVED IT! We don't like the carbs of pasta. I make my own sauce from the garden and grow our own squash. Believe it or not, it is Dec 7, 2021 and we still have one squash left that has been sitting in the fridge drawer. Has a couple blemishes on the outside but those are pealed off anyway. The insides look great and with the cutting style it was easy to inspect it all the way around. It was just starting to go on the skin but nothing inside is mushy in the least. I'm shocked sometimes how long these can last from the garden into the winter. It's in the oven now and I'm expecting another great meal! I returned to your technique once again, as it is truly the best way to prepare. Thank you!
