Although they don’t boast being the biggest of all, they have a good pumpkin flavour, this combined with their firmer and less stringy flesh, means they have a much more pleasant consistency than that of the larger pumpkin varieties. They’re great for roasting, making soups and for making pumpkin puree for delicious homemade pumpkin pies.
