I was carving my pumpkin the other night...
note the artistic skills of a five year old |
and began to wonder how pumpkins go from this...
to this...
Surprisingly, no one I asked knew the answer. So I did some research and found out how to make pumpkin puree.
Directions
1) Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
2) Cut the pumpkin in half, stem to base. Remove seeds and pulp. Cover each half with foil.
3) Bake in the preheated oven, foil side up, 1 hour, or until tender.
4) Scrape pumpkin meat from shell halves and puree in a blender. Strain to remove any remaining stringy pieces. Store in the freezer in freezer safe bags.
