Step:

  1. The pith of store-bought cut kabocha squash tends to harbor mold growth. If it's a whole kabocha, it doesn't spoil easily, since the inside is not exposed to air.

  2. Accordingly, this is a method for storing cut kabocha squash.

  3. Carefully scrape out the seeds and pith with a spoon. Scrape by forcefully carving them out.

  4. Put it in a plastic bag, then store it in the vegetable compartment of your refrigerator. That's it. It lasted for a little over a week this way.

  5. Addendum: Thoroughly scrape out the pith with a spoon until you can't scrape any more. If it's still moist after removing the pith.

  6. Let it sit out of the refrigerator for half a day to dry the surface, then store it in a plastic bag.
