Roasted Butternut Squash Agrodolce is a new and different twist on butternut squash! The squash is roasted in the oven than dressed with a tangy sweet-and-sour vinaigrette, and topped with pomegranate seeds and fresh mint! The roasting imparts a deep, rich flavor to the butternut squash. The pomegranate seeds bring a bright tartness while the fresh mint puts this dish over the top!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Agrodolce is very popular in Italian cuisine. It is a sauce that is basically equal parts sour, typically vinegar, and sweet, like honey or sugar. It adds a nice complexity to the dish. We like to make agrodolce in the style of the Sicilian and Italian relatives we grew up with. In reality, many cultures use a sweet and sour approach. The Chinese use sweet and sour sauces on many of their proteins, including chicken, pork and shrimp. Eastern Europeans like to make cabbage rolls in a sweet and sour style as well. The list goes on and on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
