Ok, with some difficulty have sawed the top off the pumpkin. NOw inside is stringy orange fibrous stuff and seeds. Hve put the seeds aside with a plan to roast them or something.
BUT ... I'm presuming that the stringy stuff isn't the edible part. That's the hard stuff around the outside of the pumpkin.
So, do you thin out your pumpkin and that is what you make the pumpkin pie or whatever you make out of?
do you have to liquidise it? it seems too hard to be put into a pie!
