  • Spaghetti squash is a hard shell winter squash that resembles the shape of a Korean melon with a golden-yellow, oval semi-hard rind, and a mild, nutlike flavor. When cooked, the flesh separates into strands that resemble spaghetti pasta. Spaghetti squash is often stuffed and roasted. Spaghetti squash is available year-round.
 Handling Tip
Selection
  • Spaghetti squash is firm and heavy for its size.
  • The skin is smooth and dull with no soft spots or bruises. Shiny rind indicates an immature spaghetti squash.
Storage
  • Spaghetti squash should be stored at 50°F - 55°F (10°C - 13°C) with a relative humidity of fifty to seventy percent.
  • The typical shelf life is no more than two to three months. Extremely low humidity may lead to excess weight loss and flesh deterioration.
  • Spaghetti squash is not sensitive to ethylene, a naturally occurring gas that regulates ripening, and produces a low amount of ethylene. However, spaghetti squash with bruises and cuts greatly increases ethylene production.
  • Spaghetti squash is sensitive to chilling injury at storage below 50°F (10°C). Symptoms include loss of flavor and sunken pits on the surface.
