Candystick Dessert Delicata

This delightful nugget grows on a vigorous vine producing abundant fruits.  Bred by the venerable Carol Deppe, of Corvallis, OR,  it was selected for sweetness and a smaller seed cavity, meaning more flesh per fruit.  We enjoy eating this for dinner or dessert!  Try pulling out the seeds, slicing it thinly into little half moons, lathering with olive oi,l salt, and spices, and then roasting for sweet delicious squash chips.
