Chef's Narrative

The crunch of nuts and savory sage create layers of flavor and texture that enhance the delicate roasted squash.

Recipe Substitutions

Make this with any pumpkin or hard-skinned squash. Hazelnuts and fresh winter savory or almonds and fennel tops are among our favorite variations. Use walnut oil for the olive oil to fortify the walnut flavor.
