Black Futsu

Small flavourful squash has dense orange flesh with a hint of hazelnut. These little squash were popular in Japan during the Edo period (1603-1867) and are making something of a comeback today. Dark green, deeply ridged fruit turn a deep burnt orange colour in storage. Perfect size for two people for dinner. We like to make gnocchi or ravioli with this one. Rare.
