    I've never cooked with pumpkin before, and it's such a large vegetable. I was planning on making pumpkin soup for Halloween this year, so thank you very much for showing how simple it is to break one down to use.

      I should have checked this video before peeling the pumpkin this morning-a lot of pain😂

    Short answer - sharpen your knife, or get a better one. Long answer, everything takes practice, don't give up.

    And if you want to make a couple of snacks and a nice drink to have with them, pan-fry (or deep fry if you're feeling naughty) those skins in some oil and toss them with your favorite seasonings for some chips; sift through the innards to separate the stringy bits from the seeds and bake the latter for a second snack; and dry out the stringy bits to steep in some boiling water for a tea!

    Love the accent, mix between Scottish and American, can we cook the skin with the inner pumpkin?

    • @roadwarrior3492
      @roadwarrior3492 3 роки тому +2

      Yes. I just cut mine in half and leave the skin on and gut it. After I bake it I just pull off the skin with my fingers, comes right off!

    Save time, roast the pumpkin whole. The rind practically falls off!

    • @DaZebraffe
      @DaZebraffe 2 роки тому +2

      That's just fine for if you're making puree. But for soup, you really want to start with uncooked chunks.

    Mine was flat shape like a wheel. Not possible to chop the hard top that “easily”. Took me 1h to peel this 🤯. I need a longer knife

    Chefffffffffffff I have the same kinda pmkin but but but the skin is thick and hard. The knife doesn't go through like your does. The peeler slips out so the hand it's too tough what do I do?
