It totally balances the sweetness of the squash and with cilantro, or any of the flavors that belong with sriracha and cilantro traditionally, it can really knock your socks off. When I saw that you had omitted the allspice I thought maybe you, too, had issues with recipes that drew out or highlighted the sometimes overpowering sweetness of veg. like butternut squash, sweet potatoes, yams, etc. Anyway, I love your site - thanks for all of your LOVELY recipes and photos!

I also always have canned tomatoes, so no matter what, I have dinner fixings should I need them.

Or would it keep that long in the fridge? I've made this before and its a major hit-- one of my favorite dishes!

I love butternut, but we only grew acorns this year. I can't wait to try this recipe. Would any other squash work? I love butternut, but we only grew acorns this year.

Now I jsut need to stop reading and start making some of them. The Tahini dressing was a totally new idea for me. I have always used Tahini only when I made hummus, but I can totally see a salad with chickpeas and a tahini dressing. Almost like hummus before the mixing and much more beautiful:) This site with its recipes just gets better and better. Now I jsut need to stop reading and start making some of them.
