To select an acorn squash: You want to find an acorn squash that has a nice green color
to it. The more green on the squash, the better. You also want to feel the texture of the squash.
It should feel very, very hard. Also, check the stem and make sure that the stem is a
nice green color and not black or dried out. Acorn squash is typically used for baking.
However, the outside can be very, very hard. So be very careful whenever using a knife
and your acorn squash. That is how you select acorn squash.
