Meanwhile, bring 1 quart of water to a boil and add the orange and lemon zest; boil for about 3 minutes and drain, reserving the zests. 6. Remove the skins from the squash and sweet potatoes and mash either with a fork, potato masher, stand mixer (fitted with the paddle), or a food mill (a food processor could result in a mixture that is too watery). 7.
