The *only* reason I mentioned it was because at first I thought I was doing
butternut. Which is why I looked up a recipe for butternut. I had already
begun the peeling process and cut into the damned thing. It wasn't until I
began scooping out the seeds that my brain kicked in and told me that it
wasn't butternut.
For the record, I was able to peel it. I did use a vegetable peeler for
most of it and I didn't peel myself. I did use a paring knife for some of
the little bits in the crevices.
