Pumpkin Velvety: The Recipe.
Pumpkin Velvety: The Recipe.
Autumn: Pumpkin is the queen.
The color of its pulp resembles that of the leaves falling from the trees. Unmistakable, the pumpkin is known by everyone for its sweetness.
Pumpkin is used in many recipes that are part of the Italian culinary tradition: we love pumpkin in the family and we prepare a lot of dishes with it.
Appetizers, first and second courses, outline, sweets.
Today we have prepared a pumpkin velvet.
After many attempts with different types of pumpkin, in our house we think that the pumpkin velvety made with pumpkin" delica or mantuan " is the best: a unique flavor and an enveloping scent.
"The yellow pumpkin doesn't sing, doesn't play and doesn't dance, but for those who know how to cook this pumpkin sings, plays and dances".
(Proverb)
Ingredients:
1000 GR. pumpkin. We use the delicate pumpkin or mantuan of the Lorenzini farm(you'll find a number stamped on the pumpkin: go to the company's website and you can track the product from the moment of sowing). This quality is the best for us to make pumpkin velvet.
