Step 2Scoop, mash, and season
Scoop the squash into a bowl, and mash it with a fork, potato masher, or a KitchenAid stand mixer. Depending on the type of squash and consistency this will require a different level of effort.
Add seasoning:
2 lemons, juiced
5-10 cloves garlic, grated
salt & pepper to taste
The raw garlic will be slightly cooked by the steaming-hot squash. If you prefer, you can use roasted garlic; I like the bite of semi-raw garlic, but am probably an extreme case.
Optional additions: brown sugar, allspice, nutmeg, fresh parsley.
I prefer this type of squash extremely plain, and don't bother with any of the sweeteners or spices. The lemon juice removes any need for butter, so it's a nice holiday dinner varient if your relatives are on low cholesterol diets.
