Renowned for its sweet flesh and chestnut-like flavor, the Kabocha squash is ideal for gourmet vegetable gardens and autumn harvests. The most well-known variety, the 'Red Kuri' Kabocha squash, stands out with its pear-shaped fruits, bright red skin, and intense orange flesh. The 'Uchiki Kuri' Kabocha squash offers medium-sized, red-orange fruits with dense, sweet flesh. Kabocha squash is a beloved vegetable for its easy cultivation and generous yield. Our range of Kabocha Squash Seeds includes both conventional and organic options.
Kabocha squashes thrive in sunny locations and rich, moist, well-drained soil. Sow them in May after the last frost and harvest the fruits in autumn when the skin is fully colored and hard. They store well when kept in a cool, dry place.
In the kitchen, Kabocha squash lends itself to numerous preparations. Its velvety flesh is perfect for soups and purées. Roasted in the oven, Kabocha squash pieces make a delicious companion to meats and poultry. Mashed, it adds a sweet and fragrant touch to dishes. It can also be stuffed or used in gratins. For dessert lovers, Kabocha squash can be transformed into pies, cakes, or even jam.
