Nor I. I never peel any squash I don't have to. The wife does simmered
kabocha squash, and tried butter-nut via the same method just recently.
And the skin was a bit thick for me, though not for her. I'd peel
butter-nut.

I was so surprised when I read I didn't have to peel a delicata squash
and by golly it was true, so it went on my list of "buy" when I don't
want to peel. I do peel butternut squash, but it's easy enough to
peel - because it's so smooth. I should try baking an unpeeled piece
the next time I make some and see if peeling is really necessary.
