Someone gave us some squash I have never seen before. They are white shaped like a flower. Any ideas or have a site that shows pictures?

Re: Squash Question

Is this it? This is called petit pan squash or patty pan squash. I just found it. I've never used it.



I found it at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Cookbook:Squash

Hope this helps.
