- Place the squash on the counter or a cutting board and slice across the middle. (not lengthwise)

- Allow pressure to “release naturally†for 10 minutes. (for cubes, quick release all the pressure immediately.)
- Carefully release any remaining pressure with a towel over top and remove lid.
- Place cooked squash on a cutting board and let cool for a few minutes.
