Can I eat the skin on delicata squash? Yes! Delicata’s skin is edible and is absolutely delicious. Be sure to wash the squash well before roasting as the skin is usually coated in a wax used for preserving the squash. When can I buy delicata squash? Delicata squash is available during the fall and winter. They are in season at the same time as other winter squashes like butternut, acorn, and pumpkin! How should I season delicata squash? Like most squashes, it’s fun to season delicata with both sweet and savory spices.
