I've heard people describe it as "meaty", but I definitely never got that impression. But then, I made my mind up not to like it when I was a kid, and you know how that turns out a few years down the road....I still need to try it with a fresh mind.

But if you still have little kid tastes you'll find it to be squishy, squashy (duh), a little stringy, too yellow, and just really gourd-y.

But I've heard proponents of eating squash describe it as meaty as in savory and maybe also in texture, as I said, and surely buttery as it must be so aptly named, but I'm not the most reputable source since I haven't dared eat it for several years.

Really though if you want to know you should just cook some up and try it. Because describing a sensation and especially your own perception is difficult at best, even for a poet, and always misleading to someone or another.

On second thought, have someone else cook it for you. Someone who's done it before...because if you f|_|ck (sorry, had to do that because this c|_|nt of a website is afraid of something as silly as words) it up and end up hating it, it might not be the squash's fault at all!

How do you get the burned taste out of yellow squash?

To remove the burned taste from yellow squash, first, cut away any charred or overly browned parts. Rinse the remaining squash under cold water to wash off any residue. Then, consider sautéing it with fresh herbs, garlic, or spices to mask the burnt flavor.
