A "baby-sized" or one-serving Japan winter squash, kabocha, is now available. Chefs in Japan find it a perfect kabocha for stuffing and for use in soups. The beautiful red-orange skin of this Japanese pumpkin squash is miniature in size, weighing only about 1 pound. The flesh of the fruit is brilliant yellow-orange and has powdery, soft texture when cooked. Its flavor is very sweet like a cross between a sweet potato and a pumpkin. Use in tempura, stir-fry or bake.
- Maturity: Approx. 35 days after flowering
- Planting season: Late spring to early summer
