I’ve been noticing recipes starring Delicata squash infiltrating Pinterest, Foodgawker, and numerous food sites and blogs. Each time I see a photo featuring this trendy ingredient, it’s painfully obvious why it’s rising in popularity: It’s gorgeous! When cut into long segments, the squash looks like delicate orange lace on a dinner plate.
