What is a Crookneck Squash?
Crookneck squash is a type of summer squash with a classically crooked shape and a rich yellow rind. They can be used interchangeably with other types of summer squash, such as zucchini, in a variety of recipes. In addition to being available in many markets during the summer, crookneck squash can also easily be grown at home almost everywhere, as long as the summer is reasonably warm. In extremely warm climates, crookneck squash may be induced into growing year round.
