SIMMERED KABOCHA SQUASH WITH SCALLIONS
When you can't eat one more roasted winter vegetable, this bright, fragrant soup-stew does the trick. It's from "A Common Table" by Cynthia Chen McTernan, who publishes a food blog called Two Red Bowls. Kabocha, which she calls her "soul-mate squash," has a special earthy texture and a nutty flavor, but you could also do this with buttercup squash. Serve as a side dish, or as a light dinner with freshly cooked rice and a fried egg.

Steps:
- In a wide skillet or wok, heat the oil over high heat until shimmering. Add the squash and toss with a spatula until evenly coated with oil. Cook, stirring occasionally, until lightly caramelized, 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium and add the scallions. Stir, then add 1/2 cup of broth and stir again. Adjust the heat to a simmer. If using skin-on squash, turn the pieces so that the skin is submerged; this allows them to cook evenly.
- Cover and simmer until squash is tender and skin (if using) is cooked through, 10 to 15 minutes. Check occasionally to make sure the pot isn't cooking dry; add broth as needed to keep the mixture simmering. The broth will reduce and thicken into a light sauce.
- When cooked through, sprinkle generously with salt and pepper, stir and taste the squash and the broth. Add salt and pepper as needed. Serve hot, sprinkled with extra scallions. Ladle a little extra hot broth over each serving.

Steps:
- Gather all the ingredients.
- In a small saucepan, boil the measured water for the dashi. Once boiling, add the katsuobushi.
- Mix together and turn off the heat. Set aside for 15 minutes. Then, strain the katsuobushi with a fine-mesh sieve. Now you have Katsuo Dashi. Set it aside for now. Reserve the spent katsuobushi to make furikake (rice seasonings).
- Remove the seeds and membrane from the kabocha and microwave it for 2 minutes to soften the outer skin. You can skip microwaving if you have a sharp knife and the strength to cut through the hard kabocha.
- Carefully cut the kabocha into wedges, then equal 2-inch (5 cm) pieces. Remember, we leave the skin on because kabocha skin is edible and nutritious.
- In a large pot, place the kabocha pieces in a single layer, skin side down.
- Add the dashi, sake, and sugar. Tip: Swirl the pot to mix the seasonings so you don't break the kabocha pieces.
- Cook on medium high heat and bring it to a boil.
- Add the soy sauce and salt, and swirl the pot again to mix the seasonings. The cooking liquid should come three-quarters up the sides of the kabocha pieces; if it does not, you can add a little bit of water. Bring it to a boil again.
- Once boiling, turn the heat to medium low to maintain a simmer. Cover with an otoshibuta (drop lid) and cook for 20-30 minutes (depending on the size of your kabocha pieces and how long it takes the skin to cook). You can tell it's done when the orange flesh of the kabocha has tiny, thin cracks near the skin or a bamboo skewer pierces the kabocha easily. If you feel that the liquid is evaporating too fast, you can cover the pot with a pot lid (with the otoshibuta still placed on top of the kabocha).
- Remove from the heat and let the kabocha sit covered with a pot lid until cool, about 30 minutes. This helps the kabocha absorb more flavor as it cools. You can serve it at room temperature or reheat before serving.

STEAMED KABOCHA WITH GINGER-SOY DRESSING
The magic of steam cooks the squash both quickly and evenly, and steaming the dressing with the squash opens up the flavor of the ginger, garlic, and scallions.

Steps:
- Pour water into a large saucepan, wide skillet, or large wok to come 1" up the sides and place over medium-high heat. Mix white and pale-green parts of scallions, garlic, vinegar, oil, soy sauce, honey, and ginger in a small heatproof ramekin. Set inside a large bamboo steamer off heat (or, if using a metal insert, don't bring water to a simmer and fit into saucepan before adding dressing. Cover dressing with foil.)
- Cut squash in half; scoop out and discard seeds. Slice into ½"-thick wedges. Arrange in steamer basket around ramekin, overlapping a little if needed (for metal insert, add as much squash as will fit without piling up, placing over dressing). Set over saucepan (or turn on heat), cover, and steam until squash is tender (a tester, skewer, or paring knife should easily slide through flesh), 13-15 minutes.
- Transfer squash to a platter and top with scallion greens and sesame seeds. Serve with dressing alongside.
JAPANESE STYLE SIMMERED SWEET KABOCHA
This is a Japanese style sweet and savory pumpkin recipe. Kabocha has slightly sweet taste, and it is cooked in many different ways in Japanese cuisine. For example, tempura is a popular way to cook kabocha. Cut kabocha into thin slices to make tempura. Also, simmering is a common way. Kabocha tend to keep its shape even if it's simmered. This is a great side dish to accompany a Japanese meal.
