Kitchen Gardeners International: When life gives you pumpkin puree, make pumpkin brulee


This recent video by Chef John is officially entitled "pumpkin brulee" but it could have easily been called "how to turn something healthy and pure into something deliciously decadent in 3 easy steps."

Step 1) Add white sugar
Step 2) Add eggs yolks
Step 3) Add heavy cream

It doesn't get much richer than that, but occasional richness in our cuisine helps us to appreciate the simpler, healthy dishes that should make up the bulk of our diets.

Some other "pumpkin puree" ideas you may want to consider:
-Basic, no-frills puree
-Pumpkin nutmeg dinner rolls
-Black bean pumpkin soup
