Red Kuri Squash

Red Kuri squash, also known as Hokkaido squash or Japanese squash, is a winter squash variety renowned for its vibrant red-orange skin and sweet, nutty flavor. Belonging to the Cucurbita maxima species, Red Kuri squash is characterized by its teardrop shape with a bulbous bottom and a tapered neck. The skin is smooth and thin, making it edible when cooked, while the flesh is dense, smooth, and orange-yellow in color. This versatile squash is rich in vitamins A and C, as well as fiber, making it a nutritious addition to a variety of dishes. Red Kuri squash is commonly used in soups, stews, curries, roasted vegetable medleys, and baked goods.
