What is sweet dumpling squash?<\/h2>\n

Of all the fall and winter squash varieties, sweet dumpling is one of the smallest with the average size being around 10cm in diameter. It has beautiful orange or green stripes and when roasted a sweet, nutty flavour and creamy, velvety texture. And bonus is, that it\u2019s easy to prepare since the skin is edible \u2014 yes, no peeling required.<\/p>\n

Sweet dumpling versus delicate squash<\/h2>\n

Sweet dumpling is sometime confused with delicata squash, which is actually the same squash, however in another shape. That\u2019s right, they are indeed the same squash, in another form. One being small and round and the other an oblong, cylindrical shape. Whichever version you decide to try, one thing is for sure, they caramelise beautifully in the oven and are a joy to eat.<\/p>\n

Why I love this sweet dumpling squash salad<\/h2>\n

First of all, the star, of course, is the roasted delicata squash. It has a fantastic creamy texture which add so much flavour and goodness to a simple bed of greens. But that\u2019s not all. The variety of flavours and textures add so much to an quite simple salad. It has crunch, spice, sweetness, creaminess, saltiness and a bit of sweet-sour. All of which are experience, more or less, in every bite.<\/p>\n
