I cooked up lots of acorn squash and froze it. I bought the ingredients for this recipe. Now I see that it says Do not use frozen squash... why?

Hi Mary,

When you freeze squash it has a tendency to separate from the liquid, and become somewhat more mushy than it would be if used fresh; a small amount of the sweetness of fresh squash is also lost.

If you want to use your frozen squash, make sure than it's been squeezed dry of any excess liquid. You can add a tablespoon or so of honey to make up for the loss of sweetness.

Hope this helps!
