Now I wi ll add a spoonful of tar in a overall barrel of honey .
This is my pumpkin this year!

Here say: "A hug and cry!"
But also in a bad need to see something good. But I must not make the terrible muzzle of them. They scare off "evil spirits" to its natural views.

Will they turn orange?

No, only the big green. I was going to cook from this pumpkin jam with lemon and orange. But I have a lot of zucchini. I'm going to make jam from them.

Zucchini jam ?

 

[Larisa]

This is delicious! Medium-sized 1 zucchini, one lemon peeled, 2-3 Orange without a peel and sugar. Cook for 20-30 minutes. Some of my guests can not guess what it is jam from zucchini or squash.

@Ridgerunner a new jam zucchini !!

 

[Ridgerunner]

Yeah, I noticed. It sounds like it has potential. I'll put that in my reference file, along with the purple hull pea jelly. I can pull those recipes out if I need them. But this year I'm going pretty traditional. I can't think of anything I've done that non-traditional...yet.

I discovered last year that a zucchini soup recipes can be used, substituting pumpkins for the zucchini.

Tuna fish in a soup didn't sound very good but was quite tasty with pumpkin. I suspect that a winter squash would have been more flavorful but tuna flavor is pronounced anyway. The pumpkin complimented it nicely.

Fish chowder made with tilapia if a fairly common soup in my kitchen. It would probably be fine with pumpkin, as well.

And of course, both zucchini and pumpkin breads are good .

I haven't tried it but I sometimes wonder if you could substitute sweet potatoes for pumpkin or squash in those recipes. I think in most cases it might work.

I once made a sweet potato pie, following a recipe.

It might fall under the same heading as:
I once made a pecan pie, following a recipe.
I once made a bourbon and walnut pie, following a recipe.

Too sweet! Might have been the wrong recipes but some of these things should be considered as confections, if'n I've got the correct meaning of that word.

Bourbon and walnut pie, you got my attention. More details please.
