Remember that, almost 14 pound jarrahdale pumpkin we grew and harvested?
Well, I finally roasted it, pureed it, and froze it all. By the way it tastes great, the color is amazing, and the end result was a fantastic amount of pumpkin for one pumpkin.
Did you know, that if you have a proper way to store these jarrahdale pumpkins, they can stay in the "pumpkin" form for up to 12 months? I do like that aspect of it, but they are a bit of a challenge to slice. If you can cut butternut and spaghetti squash, you can cut up one of these.
Ideally, we wanted to roast part of it for a dinner, but time was against me, and I still wasn't feeling great. In fact, I was ready for PJ's, my bed, hallmark and some crochet by the time I was done freezing the pumpkin puree.
