Fall is the perfect time to try the different varieties of broccoli that are available in farmers' markets and specialty food stores. Romanesco broccoli, an Italian heirloom variety with a beautiful apple green head, may appear to be a new variety of psychedelic broccoli or cauliflower, but it has actually been enjoyed in Italy since the 16th century.

Ingredients

Uncooked delicata squash

2 medium, about 10 oz each

Romanesco

1 pound(s)

Fresh sage

12 leaf/leaves, torn

1½ tbsp(s)

Olive oil

1 tbsp(s)

Kosher salt

1 tsp(s)

Black pepper

¼ tsp(s)

Instructions
