Cooked pumpkin

We have cropped several pumpkins in the garden farm this year. They taste pretty good. They are cooked for boiled vegetables or this cooked pumpkin. The latter is a simple dish of pumpkin simmered with small amount of soy sauce, sake, sweetened sake and sugar.  Pumpkin could taste good or not very good being dependent on the kind, the environmental factors such as fertilizer or sunshine or the timing of harvest. This one was a hit. It tastes sweet and, how should I say, full bodies taste like chestnut. Both of us would take all the pumpkins harvested for the coming week or two.

 

The main dish was yellowtail and radish which I had already uploaded in the past. This was another success. My wife was uttering in spite of herself as "This is delicious!" while eating it.
