Elaine wrote in BTVC that no canned pumpkin is legal.? Jenn Canned vegetables are not legal because they may contain undisclosed starch or sugar as it is legal to include 2% of ingredients that are not on the nutrition label. Cooking Fresh Pumpkins If you want to cook fresh pumpkins, look for smaller varieties, especially the " sugar pumpkin " or Kabocha Squash. In order to cook fresh pumpkin, heat the oven to 350° F. Split the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds and stringy pulp. Place pumpkin halves, cut side down on a baking sheet and bake for about one hour or until very tender when pierced with a fork. Spoon the soft pulp out of the shell and use it in recipes. Carol F. SCD 5 years, celiac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
