The pale green rind is thin, smooth, firm, and edible but is often discarded because of its tough nature. The creamy white flesh is crisp to starchy and becomes succulent to cottony as it matures, and the central core contains one small, edible seed. Chayote squash is crunchy and very mild with a slightly sweet taste and light notes of cucumber.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab2\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChayote squash is best suited for both raw and cooked applications such as grilling, stir-frying, boiling, steaming, and baking. When young, they can be sliced or shredded in salads and slaws along with ingredients such as citrus, cabbage, arugula, and fresh herbs. They can also be pickled and preserved. When ripe, Chayote squash can be peeled, sliced, and added to soups, stews, curries, and casseroles. Fully mature Chayote can be boiled and mashed or slow-roasted and served as potato as an accompaniment to main courses featuring grilled meats and fish. When slicing into the raw fruit, it is recommended to wear gloves as the squash secretes a sticky, nontoxic residue which may cause some irritation to sensitive skin. Chayote pairs well with chili peppers, cream-based sauces, curry, garlic, onions, both soft and hard cheeses, melon, cumin, coriander, oregano, cilantro, lemon or lime juice, almonds, and coconut milk.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab3\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThey will keep up to four weeks when wrapped in a paper towel, placed in a plastic bag, and stored in the refrigerator.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli id=\"tab4\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSauteed Chayote Squash\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4 chayote squash\u003cbr\u003e3 tablespoons butter\u003cbr\u003e4 shallots, thinly sliced (about 3\/4 cup)\u003cbr\u003e4 cloves garlic, minced\u003cbr\u003eKosher salt, to taste\u003cbr\u003eFreshly ground black pepper, to taste\u003cbr\u003eChopped chives, parsley, and\/or grated Parmesan cheese, garnish\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSlice the squash in half lengthwise and scoop out the seeds.
