Roasted Delicata Squash with Black Garlic and Miso
Serves 2
Enhance the sweet flavor of delicata squash with a savory, umami-rich seasoning paste of black garlic and miso. Remember, you don't have to peel this variety of winter squash—just seed, slice, and cook. Look for black garlic, peeled and ready to use, in the produce department.

- 4 cloves black garlic
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon miso paste
