Cooking your Jack-O-Lantern pumpkin:
Wash and cut up Jack-O-Lanterns into 4-5 inch square pieces. Pressure cook in 1 C. water for 10-12 minutes. (If you don’t have a pressure cooker, see the NOTE:)You will not need to add any more water with the next batches since they seem to “grow”water. Drain, scoop out of peeling, and blend in blender until smooth. (I freeze in 7 C. packages which make 2 pies.) This pumpkin is wetter than canned pumpkin it needs to have liquids cut down in regular pumpkin recipes. (I use extra pumpkin in place of the liquid called for.) Or it can be used in exact measurements with any apple sauce recipe.
NOTE: If you don’t have a pressure cooker, simmer in covered pan for 30-45 minutes or until soft and tender.
