Purchase<\/h3>\n

The pumpkin should be firm, heavy in the hand, its rind hard, without spots or cracks.<\/p>\n

Preserve<\/h3>\n

Keep your pumpkin in a cool, dry place for a few weeks. Avoid the refrigerator. To dehydrate it, empty and peel it, then cut it into thin slices. Put everything in the oven at low temperature or in the dehydrator. The seeds are preferably stored in the refrigerator so as not to go rancid prematurely.<\/p>\n

Preparation<\/h3>\n

Cut the pumpkin and get rid of its seeds. Cut it into cubes and boil them either in a large volume of salted water, or in the basket of the steamer, for a cooking time between 15 and 20 minutes.<\/p>\n
