Fresh Chayote Squash - per lb

Fresh chayote squash sold by the pound, with pale green skin and a mild, crisp flesh that turns tender when cooked. Peel and dice it for stir-fries, sambar, kootu, and curries, or grate it raw into slaws and salads. Its subtle flavor soaks up spices beautifully, making it a versatile everyday vegetable. Keep it refrigerated and it will stay firm for a couple of weeks.
