Cucutz squash

Every year i try to grow something we have never grown before, a few yrs ago it was Tomatillo, which are wonderful and versatile. I have made relishes, salsas and gorgeous jams and sauces from them. They do reseed like crazy, so wherever you plant them they will be there forever! This year I ran across a variety of squash that I had never even heard of. I had assumed that the Cucutz was a hybrid, cross between a cucumber and zucchini, but it is an Italian squash, also known as Cucuzza and Gagootz squash. I find it interesting to watch new things grow.
