Summer Squash
- Squash
- Salted water
- Butter
- Salt
- White pepper
They must be so young that the thumb nail will strike through the shell. Wash and quarter or slice them (you need not remove the skin or seeds); then boil till tender in slightly salted water - 20-30 minutes (be patient, you rascal). When done, turn off the water and set the kettle back on the stove; mash, and stir to let the water dry out, then add butter, salt, and a little white pepper. Keep hot on the back of the stove, until time to serve.
