Pattypan Squash

A round, flattish summer squash with a scalloped edge. Their pale-green skin (which turns white as the squash matures) and small size (3 to 4 inches in diameter) can identify tender young pattypans. The thin skin, which can be smooth to slightly bumpy, is usually not removed. Pattypan squash can be cooked in the same manner as other summer squash. Category:Glossary
