You would prepare this recipe exactly the same using the winter squash of your choice. When you make the sauce you might add some sautéed garlic, thinly sliced onions, chopped walnuts and cinnamon in with the butter for extra flavor.
1 butternut squash (about 2 lbs.)
About 1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
3 to 3 1/2 cups flour, plus more for shaping
3 tablespoons butter, melted
1/2 cup freshly shredded parmesan cheese (or other hard cheese, such as asiago or pecorino), plus more at the table
Freshly ground black pepper
