Chef's Notes
Do not shy away from the garlic and black pepper. Squash is naturally sweet, so those punchy savory notes are the secret weapon that elevates this dish from baby food to a majestic masterpiece.
Pro Tip
Line your baking sheet with parchment paper. It saves you from aggressive scraping later and guarantees your delicious crispy bits stay on the squash, not welded to the metal pan.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Piling the squash into a towering mountain on a tiny pan, resulting in a soggy, pale orange puree that looks and tastes like a baby's first sensory experiment.

The Culinary Science
