Love this squash. Simple sautéed with onion and a dash of salt, pepper and tiny bit of honey or sugar is how my grandmother makes squash. Found out from my mom my grandmother grew these flying saucers all the time when she was a little girl.
We have grown patties for years and use them to make stuffed squash a lot. Blanch them, slice the top and scoop the seeds, fill with your choice of stuffing and then bake. Super filling meal though, make sure you have someone to share with.
I’m very excited to be growing white pattypan squash and casper eggplant this year along with orange Turkish eggplant. I love the texture of patty pan 💙 your wife ( I presume ) has a very uplifting energy to her voice, I find myself smiling without realizing it.
I slice them thinly and saute in butter, like mushrooms. I add them to stews and soups or make an entire cream soup with them. I also roast them in the oven with olive oil along with quartered pumpkin, potatoes., sweet potatoes and Yams. I also grate them and make them into fritters with finely chopped onions, grated cheese, eggs and anything else lying around.
Promise of spring in the air, and here I am, back rewatching some of my favorite videos. This specific one made me start growing patty pan last year. I had the misfortune of no male flowers leading to poor pollination , and I resorted to cross pollinating them. So while I didn’t enjoy the patty pan in all its vigor last year, I simply cannot wait this year. Thanks for the inspiring great quality content. This video is one of my favorites.
I just grew the white patty pan this year. One plant has produced upwards of 30 squash! They get huge very quickly so I have to check it often so they don’t get too large. I was so surprised how sweet and delicious it was no matter how big it gets! I sautéed it in oil and some fresh hot peppers till tender, added salt pepper and butter. My hubby said it tasted like pancakes 🥞. Which he loves, so I guess he really liked it! I enjoyed it immensely as well.
It was our first time growing this squash and I was amazed and how tender and sweet it was too! I’m used to grilled sliced squash, so that’s what we did with our first meal with this squash, and it was superb, but your sandwich looks divine!
the patty pan squash is great steamed with long neck squash and a red onion I love them someone left a big box of them on the porch of our church one summer and when I seen no one wanted them I took them home and cooked them in a steamer and everyone loved them they had a great flavor very much like fresh corn I thought and I will grow some of these this summer if the Deer let me lol.
Last year when you posted this video, I went & bought some Patty squash seeds. Germinated them like in one of your videos, you are definitely correct about this type of vegetable. My mom was skeptic at first ( cause she often tells me-there is no space in our garden for this or that) yet I proved her wrong & she LOVES this vegetable now. This year however I planted around 10 different kinds of squashes, 4 of them are Patty squash varieties & my mom is clueless I did this XD. Your videos are very inspiring to plant vegetables at home. Greets from Germany
We discovered this squash a few years ago and have been delighted. My daughters love it when I make rice with garlic, leeks, herbs and greens and serve in the squash as bowl after lightly baking it. The scalopping makes a dainty, delicate and delectable bowl. Enjoying your videos alot.
What pleasure learning so much more about white Patty Pan squash with you! Through your inspiration and recommendation, this year I've grown Patty pan for the first time. So easy and fun to grow that I have recommended them to my son also. Now looking forward to my first harvest tomorrow morning, patty pan is on the breakfast menu. Just love to pan fry squash, as you have done, using celtic sea salt, then adding pumpkin and sunflower seeds to lightly toast, finally mopping up any juices left in the pan with sourdough rye bread is lightly toasted that way; I can't wait! Now White Holland cucumber is on the list for next year. Thank you so very Siloe!
O loved this music, this mix (Brazilian portuguese + English). I'm Brazilian and beggining a urbana tarde with a lot of organic food. Thank you for sharing your recipes and tips
you make everything so enjoyable to watch and learn. it will be going on my list of things to try. thank you for the recipe. it's simple but when you prepared your food it looks magazine ready!👍
This video has convinced me to plant patty pan sqaush. Thank you ! The cooking component was an unexpected blessing. Great cooking tips ! Totally subscribing
"Gardening with Vincenzo" here...enjoyed the "simple" recipe and the obviously expressed "simple pleasure" derived by yourself in enjoying it...nice video...subscribed
I am growing these this year - thanks for the fantastic sandwich idea. It looks absolutely delicious. I'm growing them using ollas attached with tubing to a water reservoir (5 litres) - this keeps the soils around the squash absolutely bone dry and should help avoid mildew.
This so nice... I was getting ready to cut and ferment these ...( i just finished fermented cucumbers in spickling spice and wild grape leaves..) I had 2 small round zucchini ... I used dried dill and a bit of cumin...added good gluten free toast... You ready did make my lunch.. As I get ready for Shabbat tonight..thank you. Ps. ..our shabbat fellowship has a Sustainable Farm..selling at farmers markets and seniors and others are able to glean also.. This was a REAL TREAT meal was ....thanks..
Due to a mislabeling of a plant by our local nursery ("zucchini"), we wound up with patty pan squash. Just browsing what the heck to do with it, and this sammie looks amazing. Thanks for your thoughtful narration and inspiring video.
I have never seen that kind of squash where I live. It is the end of summer in Argentina and I have 7 butternut squashes hanging from trellises in my 7 meter * 7 meter veggie garden in the middle of the city!! I can't wait to try them. The plants are rapidly dying and pests are having the party of the year. Great video as always!
I just harvest this squash now I know how to prepare can't wait for my sandwich zucchini egg plant cucumbers tomatoes kale onions all from my garden yum yum
I live in the Chicago area I planted one plant and I got at least 20 I ended up starting to grind up with my zucchini to make zucchini bread and that worked really well
PERFECT TIMING! I was just planning which squash to plant. You're videos are so beautiful and helpful. I love your energy. Please keep sharing your passion.
Siloe' ...toast some fennel seeds and some cumin seeds, and dredge the squashes and eggplant in coarse cornmeal and saute' them with the seeds. Add salt and freshly cracked black pepper at the end and enjoy! The tahini salad dressing you made for your early spring salad would be great with this sandwich!
Love how you always include recipes in your videos. I actually tried doing up some eggplant on the griddle, dillweed instead of seeds, absolutely amazing on a toasted sandwich. Growing pattypans this year too. I love them but haven't had any in years. I don't think I would have gone for it in our small space if I hadn't seen what you did with them.
I love this site. I am not sure where you are but the vegetables look wonderful. I am too busy right now to grow a garden so I depend on Farmers markets.
I will be trying to grow some in my backyard once it is the season for them! I only have a small space enough for one bed of vegetables so I want to try to grow year round and make the most of the small space. Thank you for introducing me to so many new plants so that I can :)
I have found that cucumbers can be slightly shade tolerant, and taking advantage of this during the hot summer months can get you cucumbers when otherwise they would not be willing to produce.
Love this squash too, glad you enjoyed it. I did the same thing the first time I grew it only one plant, but from then on my plant numbers increased. However last year they succumbed to the squash vine border that cut the season very short. T
I grew the white patty pan a couple years ago. It was a very high producer. Unfortunately, my experience wasn't as good as yours. I don't know if it's my soil or what, but the ones I grew had absolutely no flavor at all. I ended up using them as a base vegetable in my juicer. I liked the volume it produced, it's a great plant, so this year I'm growing the yellow variety hoping that it will produce more flavor in my location. Interestingly enough, zucchini out of my garden are pretty amazing!
It's the white scalloped that Baker Creek sells. I do not usually water my garden. I get enough rain here in Kentucky and watering is usually not required for most things in my raised beds. Most squash, both summer and winter types, are usually very flavorful out of my garden. The white scalloped were just tasteless. Very healthy and productive plants, but no flavor. I just ended up drinking them instead of cooking with them! I'm not going to give them a thumbs down because the havest was crazy, but I probably won't grow the white again.
WhiskeyHotel1969 I grow the white custard from franchi seed available from seeds if Italy USA. Wonderful flavor. Also if you put a couple of stakes next to the plant ant tie the bush to them they will grow up to 5 ft tall instead of extending long along the ground, making it easier to harvest. Pick at 4 inch wide to get best flavor. Too big will be watery. Then they are great stuffed with a mushroom stuffing when large.
My daughter really loves these pattypan squash I just happen to buy from botanical interests the squash summer pattypan it's a scallop blend so you get like 3 different ones I also got a pattypan squash that is green and white striped I been ordering from (Fruition seeds) Organic Seeds for the Northwest.... love everything this seed company stands for.. I think you will love them they also have Salt and pepper pickling cukes and silver slicers and they're both white I think you will be very interested I love how you made that yummy delicious sandwich May I ask where you got those tomato seeds from those tomatoes look amazing just like that sandwich beautiful videos love them💯💯💯😊
Love this squash. Simple sautéed with onion and a dash of salt, pepper and tiny bit of honey or sugar is how my grandmother makes squash. Found out from my mom my grandmother grew these flying saucers all the time when she was a little girl.
Thomas Jefferson grew these at Monticello in Charlottesville, Va and the Urban Farmer grows them. Where did your grandmother grow them?
Flying saucers describes them exactly, lol.
Their shape is indeed peculiar!
Alabama :)
superslyfoxx1 My father is from Opalaca. I've only been there once. The farm life there was fun.
Your videos are sensational. I love the beauty in simplicity. I am inspired!
He's remarkably creative in all of his videos. I love the music he often puts in them as well.

I'm growing this too!! I made a veggie bake with my eggplant and squash! I am currently getting one to two large squash everyday! My family loves me!
I love patty pan. I grew up eating it and have grown it myself, but not for a few years. Time again to plant some. Your sandwich looked really good.
It was indeed delicious!

Really happy to hear that. I hope you have better luck with the patty pan squash this year.
Love patty pan and crook neck squash cooked in butter with s&p. That's how we do it in the south!

Due to a mislabeling of a plant by our local nursery ("zucchini"), we wound up with patty pan squash. Just browsing what the heck to do with it, and this sammie looks amazing. Thanks for your thoughtful narration and inspiring video.
Elegant and delicious-looking. I love patty-pans.
Thanks Jeanette
Your dining room looks very inviting!

Maybe that means you can start selling seed of rare vegetable varieties if its hard to find there.
Hi
Would never have thought to fry patty pan with olive oil. It looks delicious. Thanks so much for the idea.
It is amazing!

My favorite summer vegetable!!! I hope to have several party pan squash plants in my garden this year.
You make beautiful videos. Works of art.
I live in the Chicago area I planted one plant and I got at least 20 I ended up starting to grind up with my zucchini to make zucchini bread and that worked really well
They are prolific indeed. (they were grown by native americans)
I've never tried this one, thanks for the input! Just an FYI, for those that haven't really given "Delicata" squash a try, you're missing out!
Try it out. And thanks for the tip.
PERFECT TIMING! I was just planning which squash to plant. You're videos are so beautiful and helpful. I love your energy. Please keep sharing your passion.
Thanks! The more feedback like this, the more motivation I'll have to continue. Thanks for taking time to watch and comment!
Love this video, harvesting and eating. Yum!
Thanks

I grow these in hydro, vertical indoors year round. They’re so tasty cubed & oven roasted with some fresh herbs

It hope it does!

Growing pattypans this year too. I love them but haven't had any in years. I don't think I would have gone for it in our small space if I hadn't seen what you did with them.
Growing them with English custard as well. Really excited to try some summer squashes that don't generally show up in the produce aisle.
You are amazing! Thank you.
I love your videos ! Keep them coming
Thanks
Siloe’ sorry I did not see your name earlier. Thank you and keep up your hard work. Brad

Wondered what the pattypan tasted like. Will have to try. Thanks for sharing this post. Hey the sandwich looked great and loved your choice of bread.
story telling on point, per usual!
Thanks Jamie. I'm glad you appreciate that.
Nice work, Siloe.
Thanks Dan!
When you be adding a small chicken coop to your yard? You know you want to.
great video, I would have never thought to make a sandwich out it can't wait to grow some and try it that way! thank you!
Cool video! I look forward to growing this now.
Awesome!
I have found that cucumbers can be slightly shade tolerant, and taking advantage of this during the hot summer months can get you cucumbers when otherwise they would not be willing to produce.
love watching you do your thing bro, big ups!
Awesome!
Great video! Looked very good your sandwich - will try too
Thanks! Please do!
I suffered nearly 40 years on this earth not having ever eaten patty pan squash. Now that I have people think I'm crazy for how bonkers I go for them.
Awesome video!
This recipe is really inviting to try it 😋👍
Looks amazing and makes me look forward to garden season even more!
Another favorite video. I’ll be making this sandwich. I like to rice my pattypan Tku 👌🌻
Looks delicious
Love this squash too, glad you enjoyed it. I did the same thing the first time I grew it only one plant, but from then on my plant numbers increased. However last year they succumbed to the squash vine border that cut the season very short. T
It is very prolific. I hope you can prevent the borer issue this time around.
Gorgeous.

WhiskeyHotel1969 I grow the white custard from franchi seed available from seeds if Italy USA. Wonderful flavor. Also if you put a couple of stakes next to the plant ant tie the bush to them they will grow up to 5 ft tall instead of extending long along the ground, making it easier to harvest. Pick at 4 inch wide to get best flavor. Too big will be watery. Then they are great stuffed with a mushroom stuffing when large.
That looks delicious!
It sure was.
My daughter really loves these pattypan squash I just happen to buy from botanical interests the squash summer pattypan it's a scallop blend so you get like 3 different ones I also got a pattypan squash that is green and white striped I been ordering from (Fruition seeds) Organic Seeds for the Northwest.... love everything this seed company stands for..
I think you will love them they also have Salt and pepper pickling cukes and silver slicers and they're both white I think you will be very interested I love how you made that yummy delicious sandwich May I ask where you got those tomato seeds from those tomatoes look amazing just like that sandwich beautiful videos love them💯💯💯😊
