Description
Sugar Pie pumpkins are best suited for cooked applications such as roasting or boiling. They are most commonly used for baking and can be pureed into pies, cheesecake, pancakes, tarts, bread, custards, and flan. In addition to sweet preparations, Sugar Pie pumpkins can be used in savory dishes such as soups, hollowed out, stuffed, and baked similarly to acorn squash, cubed and roasted as a side dish, or sliced into wedges and grilled. They are also used to make gnocchi, chili, empanadas, and curries. The seeds can be toasted, salted, and served as a snack. Sugar Pie pumpkins pair well with sage, rosemary, thyme, oregano, coriander, cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, swiss chard, spinach, kale, peas, beans, hazelnuts, lobster, ham, potatoes, tomatoes, apples, and Gruyere cheese. They will keep 2-3 months when stored in a cool and dry place.
