Most of the time is was served for supper and was always on the Sunday lunch table after church. I learned how to make this dish from a true Southern cook, my Grandmother. From slicing, then dipping to lightly dusting each tender round of squash, she was patient and steady. Put the squash slices in freezer bag and add flour, salt and pepper in freezer bag along with the squash slices and shake until coat well. Wash and dry squash, then slice off and discard the ends.
