About

Little squashlets set the scene for a swanky succotash. The backup ingredients round out the mild miniatures, lending depth and sweetness. Use any type of mini-squash, preferably of equal size.

Ingredients

½ pound “baby” squash (25 to 30 squash)— one or several varieties
½ teaspoon

Method

Halve squash vertically or horizontally, depending on what best suits the types selected. Sprinkle with salt. Let drain in colander for ½ hour or more. Blot dry with towels.
In a saucepan, combine cream, milk, mace, and sugar and bring to a boil. Add squash and corn. Simmer, stirring often, until squash is very tender, about 6 to 8 minutes. Add chilli and toss.
