Krickett: "I’m in Australia, where fresh pumpkin is available all year round, so I’m wondering why all American recipes seem to specify canned pumpkin? Making your own purée of pumpkin is really easy - cut and peel, cook until soft, and mash. If it’s more than you need, it could be frozen , but it’s also easy to judge how much you need as you prep. I generally put it in a bit of water and simmer around 15 minutes ( give it a poke, you’ll know when it’s soft) . It’s also great just cut , drizzled with olive oil and baked/roasted, and could also be microwaved"
