How do you cook acorn squash?

The very best way to have it is roasted -- either cut in half and seeded, or sliced onto a baking sheet, brush lightly with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt/pepper and any of: curry, paprika, cumin, coriander, garlic, onion powder, etc... and bake at about 350 until it browns. You can also steam or or simmer it, then optionally pure into something like mashed potatoes. Add honey or maple syrup or sauteed onions. Good as baby food. It's a very flexible vegetable - you can even grill chunks of it, adding a drop of BBQ or chili sauce at the end.
