7: Because I'm craving it, make manchamantel sauce but use pumpkin for about a third of the total pre-cooked volume.

I made an African stew a few years ago that involved preparing the stew on the stovetop while simultaneously cooking a cleaned-out pumpkin (with the lid put back on). Then when the pumpkin was cooked and the stew was ready (ideally at the same time), the stew was poured into the pumpkin for serving. When you went to scoop out some stew, you'd also scallop out some cooked pumpkin from the walls of the shell, so there'd be nice juicy chunks of cooked pumpkin in the stew. It was good. Plus it looks cool to serve a cooked pumpkin, take the lid off and have stew inside. I don't remember which stew recipe it was, but probably any West African stew would work.

Man, I really want some pumpkin.

My old roommate just put it in the oven for a while, and it came out great.

That sounds like a really good idea. That's how you cook certain kinds of squash, right?

Well i would actually like a good pumpkin pie recipe actually. anyone, anyone? Also, I heard that the orange pumpkins that are used for halloween lanterns are pretty horrible & other types of pumpkin should be used, is this right?
