For an even richer flavor, try browning the butter before roasting the squash. Drizzle the browned butter over the squash before it goes into the oven. If you don't have fresh sage, 1 teaspoon of dried sage can be substituted. Toasting the pecans brings out their nutty flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Toast them in a dry pan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until fragrant. Adjust the amount of sea salt to your preference. Start with 1/2 teaspoon and add more to taste.
