Squash, Baby Summer

Baby mixed summer squash refers to small, tender varieties of summer squash, typically including zucchini, yellow squash, and sometimes other heirloom varieties. These squashes have a delicate, slightly sweet flavor and a smooth, edible skin. Their flesh is firm yet softens quickly when cooked, making them ideal for quick sautéing, grilling, or roasting. The vibrant colors, ranging from pale green to golden yellow, make them visually appealing in dishes like salads, stir-fries, or pasta. Baby mixed summer squash retains a light, fresh taste that pairs well with herbs, olive oil, and mild cheeses.
