WINTER SQUASH WEDGES WITH GORGONZOLA BUTTER AND HAZELNUTS
Any winter squash variety will work-delicata, butternut, acorn, kabocha, etc.-and you don't need to bother peeling it, because most squash varieties have edible skins that become quite tender once cooked.

Steps:
- Make the Gorgonzola butter:
- In a medium-sized bowl, pound the garlic and a hefty pinch of salt with the back of a spoon until a paste forms. Add the butter and cheese and mix until well incorporated. Set aside.
- Make the squash:
- Heat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and brush the squash wedges with a little melted butter. Add the squash to the skillet and cook, undisturbed, for a few minutes. Once the squash begins to brown up a bit, turn the wedges and continue to cook, turning them every few minutes, until they are tender, about 25 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.
- Spoon a thin layer of the Gorgonzola butter onto a platter and top it with the squash. Sprinkle with the minced parsley, hazelnuts, and freshly ground black pepper.
