About Kabocha squash

Kabocha squash, a green-skinned winter squash native to Japan, is celebrated for its sweet, nutty flavor and velvety texture. This nutrient-dense vegetable is packed with vitamins A and C, supporting eye health, immune function, and skin vitality. Rich in dietary fiber, Kabocha aids digestion and helps promote satiety, making it ideal for weight management. It also contains essential minerals like potassium, which supports heart health, and smaller amounts of magnesium and iron. Low in calories but high in natural sweetness, Kabocha is a versatile ingredient in Japanese, Korean, and other Asian cuisines, commonly used in soups, stews, and tempura. While naturally healthy, serving methods like frying may add extra calories. Its creamy interior and adaptability make it a nutritious and delightful addition to any meal.
