Squash - Butternut

In the fertile fields of Slavonia and Baranja, the Vučemilović-Šimunović family set out to cultivate the queen of squashes: muscat squash, better known as butternut squash. Not only is it the most delicious squash around, but it is also a true nutritional Eldorado. Rich in a whole range of vitamins and minerals, it boasts a delicate aroma. It is used in cooking for both sweet and savoury dishes, and squash soup is widely renowned. This is precisely why it earned the name “muscat” or “fragrant” squash. In recent years, more and more young families use butternut squash for weaning, as one of the first foods after breastfeeding – because it is sweet without any sugar! 

 

Through careful seed selection and the dedicated work of Slavonian hands, the Vučemilović Šimunović family farm brings this wonderful treat to your kitchen!
