This afternoon, I came inside from doing yard work and poured myself a big glass of pumpkin juice. Not the Harry Potter kind, but the actual juice of a pumpkin. It was quite tasty.
The backstory: On Thursday I made a batch of pumpkin puree. I like my puree thick, so when it was done I dumped it into a coffee-filter lined colander to drain for several hours. I poured the resulting six cups of liquid into three containers. Two containers went into the downstairs freezer to use for cooking. I got busy and put the last one in the refrigerator, telling myself I'd get around to taking it down later.
Now that I finished off the container I don't have to worry about it.
Neat, I enjoyed the backstory as much as the story.

ReplyDeleteYou'll have to try it sometime.
DeleteGood job, you!
ReplyDeleteThanks :-)
DeleteI have never ever bought a real pumpkin. I am currently in love with a pumpkin black bean soup but I used canned pumpkin puree. Hmmm to the pumpkin juice. I'm curious.
ReplyDeleteNo pumpkins for eating, or no pumpkins for jack-o-lanterns too?
DeleteHello Kathy,
ReplyDeleteIt is interesting to know that you drank pumpkin juice. I have never tasted it till now. I should now try it.
Best wishes
I hope you enjoy it.
DeleteThe pumpkin seeds are my favorite part.
ReplyDeleteI'll eat the seeds, but they're never as good as the pipitas I buy at the store.
