Squash. Also Don't Use Pyrex to Roast a Squash. 1.4.2021

 This is a Pink Banana Squash.  There were a couple of good ones this year.  This one needed roasting, so it doesn't get a chance to spoil.  This one was about 5 pounds.


I tried roasting it at about 375 for an hour.  Then I heard a loud noise from the oven.  The squash slices were in Pyrex casserole pans.  I've used them many times.  This time, one exploded.  Glass shards embedded in roasted squash all over the oven.  I had to take it apart to remove the glass and clean it.  Of course the squash was also ruined, with glass shards in the roasted squash flesh.


Fortunately I have one remaining Pink Banana Squash to roast.  This time I will use earthenware oven pans.
