I did. I went to a Pumpkin event nearby where all different kinds of pumpkin where presented. Pumpkins and its products like pumpkin soup were sold. I have eaten the German kind of pumpkin soup. It was delicious. I bought a huge pumpkin. It was too big for just making 1 menu. So I made a Filipino pumpkin soup with coconut milk and a German pumpkin soup with double cream for the half of the pumpkin. The half of it I roasted in the oven and made pumpkin bread. The rest of the pumpkin purée is now frozen for later use. The pumpkin bread recipe from you tube taste like a cake but all the same, DELICIOUS. What else can I cook with pumpkin? Do you have any idea? Thanks for reading and have a nice new week ahead.

@thelme55 I had a packet of pumpkin seasoning, and also used canned pumpkin. The recipe was on the packet.of course it had beans, tomato, and possibly meat. Anyway, it was good. Pumpkin is healthy.

Beautiful photo! I have not yet cooked with pumpkin because the temperature is still too hot, but I will soon. I am going to make pumpkin gnocchi and pumpkin ravioli.

@thelme55 Gnocchi the same as potato gnocchi, but you mix pumpkin puree, flour, eggs and Parmesan cheese. For the ravioli I make the egg pasta as for all other kind of ravioli, then I fill each rectangle of pasta with a mixture of pumpkin, cheese, and nutmeg. Ravioli are served with a sauce like browned butter and sage.

@thelme55 I forgot to include the link and hope it’s okay with myLot that I share it.
I recently developed a pumpkin bread recipe that is very similar to this called Vanilla Pudding Pumpkin Bread. It was so delicious and so well received, that I decided to play with the ingredients a

@thelme55 With or without coconut milk. I just don't like it the Filipino vegetable meal at all.

I've made this cheesy baked pumpkin pasta. It was good!
This Cheesy Baked Pumpkin Pasta is baked in the oven with a quick pumpkin sauce made with bacon, shallots, Pecorino cheese and a touch of rosemary then topped with mozzarella cheese.

No, I haven’t tried it. I have not seen pumpkin flowers sold in the supermarket. I wonder if the Germans eat pumpkin flowers. Thanks @apsmine9.

It sounds like a delicious array of food. I made pumpkin brownies once. I don’t even remember where I got the recipe.

I have dried and then roasted the pumpkin seeds and they were delicious @Kandae11. Pumpkin seeds are expensive in the supermarket. I eat them every now and then. Thanks and have a nice day.

i love the photo you showed us. well, i'm not a pumpkin person, i must say. maybe cause my sister ate too much pumpkin one time in her teenage days and i heard her loudly from the bathroom but still, i don't like that particular flavour but i would like to taste a pumpkin cappucino, for example.

You've done well using up your pumpkin on a variety of goodies. I am toying with the idea of making a pumpkin loaf this afternoon, we shall see how ambitious I feel. Have you ever had a pumpkin bundt cake? I was at someone's home once and they served it and it was really delicious.

Does pumpkin in bread taste like cake? Now I have got to really try this one. Have a great week too by the way

That pumpkin bread sounds so good, i love that it came out like cake. You really got creative splitting one pumpkin into three different dishes, that's impressive. Maybe try pumpkin pancakes or a curry next, both go really well with the puree you froze.
