If you take a pumpkin, roast and spoon flesh, it can look like the canned stuff, but you, Äôll be surprised how little sweetness and flavor it has. It sounds like a great way to go, but in reality it is not. And what about the Äúsugar pumpkins ;, Âu that small pumpkin variety cultivated specifically for cooking? They are certainly better, but still, it, AOS been my experience that these same gift, AOT also concentrated flavor.
Moreover, the pumpkin if you can not get canned, roasted butternut squash (as we did for this soup) work fine !
A big thank you to my old friend, Jennifer Perillo, this recipe was adapted from one of his. I, AOM not above stealing a total stranger recipe, but it, AOS nice knowing the basics of a recipe came from someone who really knows what They Aore do. I hope you give these a try soon. Have fun!
