  • This squash spread isn't hard to make: Wash the pattypan squash, peel them, and cut into cubes. Transfer the squash to a large heavy pot and fry in vegetable oil for 10 minutes. In a separate pan, sauté the diced carrots and onions. Roughly chop the tomatoes and add them to the pot with the squash, along with the sautéed onion and carrots. Add the salt and sugar and simmer the vegetables for about half an hour, stirring now and then. Finely chop the garlic and the peeled parsley and celery roots, add them to the pot, and keep simmering for 10–15 minutes. Blend the well-cooked vegetables until smooth, add the vinegar, and cook down until thickened, about half an hour, stirring so it doesn't stick. Finely chop the parsley and add it to the pot. When the spread comes to a boil, ladle it into sterilized jars and seal them airtight. Turn the jars upside down and be sure to wrap them in a wool blanket. Once they've cooled completely, move the squash spread to a cellar or pantry for storage. Winter holds no fear when your shelves are full of tasty preserves!
