Washing Up
If you're color blind you may not be able to tell the difference, but on the left is the jack-o-lantern from Halloween that I cleaned, peeled, boiled, drained (lots!) and pureed. On the right is what's left from the canned pumpkin I bought at the store on Sunday to make pumpkin rolls. My question (since this is the first time I've processed a pumpkin) is, is the canned pumpkin possibly made from a pie pumpkin vs a jack-o-lantern pumpkin? Or, is the dark color from the processing? The canned pumpkin has nothing added to it, and the can said it was only pumpkin.
BTW, the one I processed is delicious with a pat of butter and a bit of brown sugar. I want to use my pumpkin to make some more pumpkin rolls tonight. The canned stuff may not be long for my fridge after tasting the fresh stuff. There will be nothing left to freeze when I'm done baking, because I will eat everything that remains!
