    Live Well Tips<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Shirini means “sweet” in Kurdish and is many different desserts commonly made with milk, dates, cashews, cardamom, and butter.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Wash all squashes before cutting them. Dirt from the outside can move to the flesh if not washed properly.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Be careful when mixing the ingredients together, the syrup mixture gets very hot!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<\/div>\r\n\n<\/div>\n\n

      Directions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      1. Wash hands with soap and water.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      2. Mix together sugar and water in a large, deep pan and place on medium heat. Boil the mixture until it forms a thick syrup.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      3. Add diced winter squash into pan with sugar syrup, mix well. Cook in the syrup, mixing occasionally, until the mixture is almost all absorbed and the squash is tender.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
