ingredients 1 med. acorn squash, halved 1 Tbsp. orange marmalade 1 tsp. butter method Preheat oven to 400°. Remove seeds and strings from squash halves. Cut small piece off outside of each half to make a flat space on which the half can stand level. Place halves in a shallow pan or casserole in 1/4 inch water with insides facing down. Bake for 35 minutes. Combine marmalade and butter in a small dish. Remove squash from oven, invert in pan or dish. Salt lightly. Spread marmalade mixture on edges of squash, allowing excess to run into center. Place under broiler for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. 2 servings : Charles Nyström Sublett variations Substitute brown sugar for the orange marmalade
