You can peel yellow squash before cooking it and eating it.

However you don't have to peel the skin off the yellow squash if you don't want too as the skin of the yellow squash is edible.

Some yellow squash skin may be tough to chew but when cooked it's easier to chew it.

The yellow squash skin does contain minerals and nutrients so you will benefit your health when eating the squash skin.

I always just keep the yellow squash skin on the squash and cook it either by slicing the squash up, cutting the squash in half etc and baking or frying the yellow squash.

All squash skin and Zucchini skin are edible and if you want to eat the skin you can do so but if you prefer to peel the skin off the squash then you can do so as well.

It's a personal preference as to whether or not you peel the yellow squash.
