Anyway, like I was sayin', punkin is the fruit of the earth. You can barbecue it, boil it, broil it, bake it, saute it. There's uh, punkin-kabobs, punkin creole, punkin gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple punkin, lemon punkin, coconut punkin, pepper punkin, punkin pie, punkin bread, punkin soup, punkin stew, punkin salad, punkin and potatoes, punkin burger, punkin sandwich. That- that's about it. "the meaning of life, is to give life meaning" ✡ Ani Yehudi אני יהודי Le'olam lo shuv לעולם לא שוב! | |||

A butternut squash makes excellent pie. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is. JALLEN 10/18/18 https://sigforum.com/eve/forum...610094844#7610094844 | |||

Um, I somewhat disagree. There's more time and planning, but it isn't particularly difficult. Our local grocery, farmers markets and such sell pie pumpkins, not too hard to get around here. I've done carving pumpkins as well, but there's less flavor. I usually make a couple of pies out of one pumpkin, or one and bread. -- I always prefer reality when I can figure out what it is.

Being of Indian ethnicity, I eat a lot of pumpkin. I use it like a vegetable, and I make Indian dishes with it. I dont know how to bake, so I dont make any of the standard foods that you guys are used to. If you think you can, YOU WILL!!!!! | |||

Love kabocha! Also good seasoned and oven roasted or cooked and mashed (like potatoes). | |||

A friend of mine makes a pumpkin soup that is awesome. She serves it in a hollowed out baked pumpkin shell which adds the meat of the shell to the soup as it is dished out. When all finished about the only thing left is the skin and people asking for more or the recipe.

we like a smallish baked pumpkin, cleaned out & layered in with various such as raisin/apples/spices/orange sections/walnuts and scooped out for desert. **************~~~~~~~~~~ "I've been on this rock too long to bother with these liars any more." ~SIGforum advisor~ "When the pain of staying the same outweighs the pain of change, then change will come."~~sigmonkey | |||

Pumpkin butter is a great spread for toast. It can be expensive, depending on what brands are available. | |||

I don't even want one around me. I hate the smell, let alone the taste of it. | |||

Maybe it's just a local name because no one has mentioned it. But around here pie pumpkins are called sugar pumpkins. But as mentioned, most commercial pies and canned filling use squash of some sort. Butternut taste almost exactly the same. These go to eleven. | |||

Let me just put everyone here on notice, right now....It is unAmerican not to like pumpkin pie. "If you think everything's going to be alright, you don't understand the problem!"- Gutpile Charlie "A man's got to know his limitations" - Harry Callahan | |||

I used to LOVE pumpkin pie and eat it all the time. Then I lost my taste for it. Then I used to LOVE pumpkin seeds. Then I lost my taste for it as it got too salty. Made my tongue raw from splitting the seeds with my teeth. "It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946. | |||

John Smith's first encounter with the Injuns (yeah, my feathered peeps, not dotted...) he was presented with a peice of punkin pie. He ate, his eyes widened and he asked for more, and was welcomed with open arms. It is reported (in some recollections...) that his reply was; " 'murica!". Some historians got it wrong, but, what the hell... "the meaning of life, is to give life meaning" ✡ Ani Yehudi אני יהודי Le'olam lo shuv לעולם לא שוב! | |||
