With any kind of winter squash, I usually fine a way it sits stably,
and then cut a cap out of the top. Scoop out the seeds, sprinkle salt
and maybe aleppo pepper inside, pile in peeled garlic clove, perhaps a
hot pepper split, and some olive oil. Put the plug back in and bake it
at 400 until it is soft when stabbed.

Or I might chop up some smoked bacon in it.
