WINTER SQUASH, BRAISED IN PEAR OR APPLE CIDER
2 pounds delicata, butternut, or other winter squash
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons finely chopped rosemary
2 cups fresh unfiltered apple or pear cider
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Balsamic or apple cider vinegar, to taste
Peel the squash, then dice it into one-inch cubes or even smaller pieces. If using delicata, remove the seeds with a long spoon, then slice into rounds.
Melt the butter in a wide skillet and add the rosemary. Cook over medium heat to flavor the butter.
After 3 minutes, add the squash and cider plus enough water to cover. Bring to a boil. Add a teaspoon salt, and simmer until the squash is tender, 20 to 25 minutes, by which time the juice will have reduced enough to provide a glaze for the squash. If not, raise the heat to reduce it quickly.
Sprinkle on a teaspoon of vinegar and taste for salt. Add additional vinegar if you need to balance the sweetness, then season with pepper.
