I experimented a lot before coming up with this recipe. My mother-in-law, who's a great cook, always praises this salad too! My family likes rice and dense flavors so I use 3 cheeses and mayonnaise in it.Use the recommended cheese, and be sure to get rid of any excess moisture. Please adjust the cooking time depending on your microwave. If you need to heat it for longer, don't forget to cover it with plastic wrap to prevent it from drying out. For 2 to 3 servings.

According to the original recipe my sister-in-law taught me, it says to peel the kabocha squash, boil, and dry it in the pan, but I didn't want to remove the peel since it's highly nutritious. I just used the microwave to simplify the steps.You could use 2 portions (18 g) of "Kiri" brand cream cheese instead. If you don't like the peel of the kabocha squash, remove the peel. If it's too bothersome, you could skip mashing the kabocha squash. If you like your salad to be creamy, add 5 tablespoons of mayonnaise!! Adjust the amount of sugar depending on how sweet the kabocha squash is. For 4-6 servings. Recipe by Hinamatsuri

I have a not-so-serious kabocha squash salad version too, that involves just microwaving, then adding mayo and soy sauce. That's really delicious too, but this recipe here is a properly made salad that's just like one you might buy in a prepared food store.Make the raisin yogurt the day before. I recommend it not just for salads, but for sweet recipes too.The kabocha squash will fall apart while you're mixing it with the yogurt and other ingredients, but that's okay. For about 4 servings.
