Pumpkins

It's pumpkin season! Although the jack-o-lantern pumpkins aren't the best for cooking, sugar pumpkins and Japanese Kabocha pumpkins cook up beautifully and should be available in markets for the next few months. Here are some ideas from Simply Recipes and from other food blogs of what you can make with them and canned pumpkin purée:

There's something about pumpkin soup on Halloween...well, I thought this recipe looked good, so I made a batch. It was delicious! Easy to make, and enough to feed a hungry post-trick-or-treating crowd. Thanks!

I love pumpkins, especially homemade pumpking pie. I made my first one last year and I'm looking forward to finding time to making a second one soon. Thanks for the links, Elise!

It's all about the pumpkin seeds for me, otherwise, I'm still a butternut squash kinda girl. LOL.

Elise,

If you can get down to the Berkeley Farmer's market any Saturday REALLY soon, I strongly suggest any squash from Annabelle Lenderink-- she is growing some heirloom stuff for savoury or sweet applications that are TO DIE FOR!

I'll trade you-- squash for pomegranates...?

xo (thanks for the link.)

How long after you buy a pumpkin from a pumpkin patch is it still good to bake with?

Great question. Winter squash (pumpkins are just a variety of winter squash) are very hardy. They can easily last a month, and some even two, after picking, if kept in a cool, dry place. Once you cut into them, then they will start to degrade quite quickly. ~Elise
