Spaghetti squash-making more stringy

[shootingstar]

Recipe is here: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Spaghet...-I/Detail.aspx

except I had 1 c. of fresh chopped basil.
And make sure you cut the squash in half before and place cut side face down on oiled baking sheet. Then put into heated oven for baking.
Plus use a fork, not a spoon to scrape out the spaghetti like pulp strands. Spoon doesn't mimic the same effect.

Appreciate all this advice so far. This is only my 2nd time using spaghetti squash. Certainly it's naturally blander hence this recipe bumps up the tastiness quotient a great deal. A great vegan, gluten-free recipe. (None of my dietary requirements, but might be for some others.)

We're more accustomed to cooking with butternut squash, which I do a stir-fry dish (I had as a child. My mother's invention.) , whereas he does multiple variations of squash soup. (with apple/pear/carrot or with curry). We don't just bake a butternut squash and just eat it. Too dull for such a wonderfully sweet veggie.
