Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Peel the squash with a vegetable peeler. Halve lengthwise, discard the seeds, then cut into 1-inch dice. Place in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. When the butter ceases to foam and has turned a light brown, pull the pan off the heat and immediately add the sage, sugar, vinegar (stand back so as not to get splattered), molasses and toasted spice rub. Mix well and let simmer over medium-low heat for 1 to 2 minutes to meld the flavors.
- Pour the vinegar mixture over the squash and toss well, then transfer to a heavy rimmed baking sheet or baking dish large enough to hold the squash in a single layer. Place in the oven and roast, tossing at least once, until very tender and caramelized, about 45 minutes to 1 hour. Set aside until cool enough to handle but still warm, so the liquids are runny.
- Working in batches, if necessary, transfer the warm squash and all the cooking liquids to a food processor and process until smooth. Use immediately, refrigerate for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
- Serving suggestions: Serve the puree on its own as a side dish for roast chicken, turkey, or pork; stir into polenta just before the end of cooking; use as a stuffing for ravioli; make into a soup; or use to flavor pastina. Or omit the sage, season with ground cinnamon and freshly grated nutmeg to taste, and use as a substitute for canned pumpkin in your favorite pumpkin pie recipe.
- Variation for Smoky Butternut Squash: Cook the prepared squash on a baking sheet in a covered grill with soaked chips to give a slightly smoky taste. Substitute in any of the recipes that call for roasted squash. If cooking kabocha, acorn, or other difficult-to-peel squash, cut in half, scoop out the seeds, and rub the insides and cut edges with the vinegar/molasses mixture. Place on a baking sheet, cut sides up, and roast at 400 degrees F until tender. Scoop out and puree.
- Toasted Spice Rub:
- Toast the fennel seeds, coriander seeds, and peppercorns in a small, heavy pan over medium heat. When the fennel turns light brown, work quickly. Turn on the exhaust fan, add the red pepper flakes, and toss, toss, toss, always under the fan. Immediately turn the spice mixture out onto a plate to cool.
- Put mixture into a blender with the chili powder, salt, and cinnamon and blend until the spices are evenly ground. If you have a small spice mill or a coffee grinder dedicated to grinding spices, grind only the fennel, coriander, pepper, and chili flakes. Pour into a bowl and toss with the remaining ingredients. Keep the spice mix in a glass jar in a cool, dry place, or freeze.
- Chef's notes: Toasting freshens spices, releases their oils, and makes them more fragrant, as well as adding a new dimension of flavor.
- Taste your chili powder before adding and, if spicy and hot, cut back the amount. California chilies are almost sweet, not hot.
- Yield: about 1 cup

BROWN-SUGAR-GLAZED WINTER SQUASH
Based on a recipe from Cook's Country magazine, October/November 2005. The intro to the recipe advises, "Don't mix the brown sugar and butter ahead of time; it will crystallize and separate. Butternut squash can be stringy when undercooked, so if you're not sure, err on the side of overcooking." I've included instructions for cooking small winter squash, such as acorn, delicata, and sweet dumpling since they cook more quickly and require less glaze.

SWEET AND SOUR WINTER SQUASH
This dish is based on a Sicilian recipe that I learned from the food writer Clifford A. Wright. The sweet and sour flavors are typical of Sicilian cuisine, though I have changed the technique used in the authentic version, which entails sautéing the squash in a lot more oil.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a baking dish large enough to accommodate the squash in an even layer, toss the squash with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and salt and pepper to taste. Cover and place in the oven. Roast 20 minutes, until not quite tender. Remove from the heat.
- Dissolve the sugar in the vinegar in a small bowl. Heat the remaining olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet, and add the garlic and the squash. Cook, stirring gently, for a few minutes, until fragrant and the squash is tender but not too soft - about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the sugar and vinegar, and continue to cook, stirring gently, until the liquid is just about gone. Add the mint, cook for another minute, and remove from the heat. Serve hot, warm or room temperature.
