Here's a simple method for making spaghetti squash:
1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Wash the spaghetti squash thoroughly under running water.
3. Using a sharp knife, carefully cut the spaghetti squash in half lengthwise. Be cautious as it can be tough to cut through.
4. Scoop out the seeds and stringy pulp from the center of each squash half using a spoon.
5. Place the squash halves cut-side down on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
6. Pierce the skin of the squash several times with a fork to allow steam to escape during baking.
7. Bake the squash in the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the flesh is tender and easily pierced with a fork.
8. Remove the squash from the oven and let it cool slightly until it's safe to handle.
9. Use a fork to scrape the flesh of the squash into long strands, resembling spaghetti noodles.
10. Serve the spaghetti squash with your favorite sauce, toppings, or as a substitute for pasta in various recipes.
Enjoy your spaghetti squash!
