Roasting Your Own Pumpkins
Do you roast your own pumpkins for making your "punkin pie? " I'm roasting mine this morning. I just took them out of the oven and the house smell divine! I'm actually roasting a variety of small pumpkins and squashes because our pumpkin crop didn't happen this year. I've got a butternut, a couple of small Kabochas and a Delicata. I just roast them whole after stabbing them a couple of times with a knife. I find it easier to separate the flesh from the seeds and skin. I won't make the pie until Wednesday night, or Thursday morning. The crust has to be crisp and fresh.
