How to Cook a Spaghetti Squash,Here’s 2 easy ways to cook a spaghetti squash for all those great recipes. It’s easier than you think. One reviewer has suggested poking a few holes in the squash before the initial microwaving. I have never done this and have never had a problem but you might want to do that just in case.,I tried to cut it first, but only made a shallow line. Put it in the microwave for 5 min, but it started to sound like popcorn after 3 so I took it out. It ended up splitting crosswise. I cut the ends in half the other way round, & put 1/2 back in at a time for 5 min, & it came out perfect. First time I’ve had this, but I think it tasted good with a little butter & salt– just the way used to eat my spaghetti! And to my surprise my 17 yr old liked it too! 4 more servings are in baggies in the fridge, but I don’t think they’ll be there long!,Q: Started to try the oven method, but could not find a recommended cooking temp for the recipe. Did we miss it? Suggestions (add a ‘tweak’)??
