    Sounds delicious! I don’t think we have frozen butternut squash in the UK, will it turn out the same if I use fresh?

    • sure just needs to be fully cooked and pureed before hand – extra step but totally delish!!!!!!!

    Yes I’ve used fresh squash plenty of times, it’s just one more step (to cook n soften the squash)

  3. instructions for squash kugel left out sugar

  6. oops sorry we fixed the recipe – see step 2.

  7. Thank you; I hope it will be delicious for Shabbat :) btw when I printed it, the words were so small.

    If you use fresh squash do you need to blend it first?

    • If you don’t it will just be chunkier as opposed to super smooth so up to you – I happen to like chunky.

    great recipe!!! if i use fresh squash how do i work out quantity?

    • you will need about 20-ounces = 2 1/2 cups of peeled and cubed or pureed squash

  10. How do you get it to that consistency? When I made it, it was very stringy.I want to try it again for this Shabbas.
    Thanks, love all your recipes!

    • Hi Jen! thanks, did you use the frozen? or fresh. Sometimes fresh squash can be stringy. Let me know/give me more details and then we can try and trouble shoot.
