Preserving Squash by Air Drying

I know that this is in Italian, but here's an idea that Carol Deppe mentioned in one of her books that she borrowed from Native Americans to preserve and use their squash for longer. It is really nice to see pictures of the process and know that people are still using this same technique today as demonstrated by an Italian Heritage Food Association. So to those of you who have grown your summer squash for too long or your winter squash for not long enough, here is another option to preserve your harvest for later.
