FRESH PUMPKIN PUREE
Making fresh pumpkin puree is very simple, but can be a little time consuming. However, I think the end product is worth the effort. I always use "sugar" pumpkins, also known as "pie" pumpkins. They are much smaller than the standard pumpkin that we carve for Halloween and are much more tender and flavorful. --NOTE-- Baking time is only 1 - 1 1/2 hours and the remainder of the noted cooking time in this recipe is actually refrigeration time. --CHOOSING THE RIGHT PUMPKIN-- When buying a pumpkin for baking, always choose a pumpkin that is free of blemishes and have been harvested with their stems intact. The pumpkin should feel heavy for their size and should have a dull skin. A pumpkin with a shinny skin was either harvested too early or was waxed by the grower. --STORING PUMPKINS-- Store pumpkins in a cool, dry place at 45F - 60F for up to a month, or refrigerate for up to 3 months. To store pumpkins for an extended time, wash the skins of the pumpkin with a solution of 1 tablespoon chlorine bleach to 1 gallon water to disinfect the skins and discourage the growth of mold.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Slice a small piece of skin off the one side of the pumpkin so when laid on its side, the pumpkin will lay flat without rolling. Remove the stem and split the pumpkin in half from top to bottom, using a large cleaver and a mallet. Scoop out the seeds and fiber with a large metal spoon or ice cream scoop. Cut the fibers with kitchen shears if necessary. Reserve seeds for another use.
- Sprinkle the flesh with kosher salt and lay the halves, flesh side down, on a parchment paper-lined half sheet pan. Roast until a paring knife can be easily inserted and removed from the pumpkin, 30 to 45 minutes. Test in several places to ensure doneness.
- Remove the half sheet pan to a cooling rack and cool the pumpkin for 1 hour. Using a large spoon, remove the roasted flesh of the pumpkin from the skin to the bowl of a food processor. Process until the flesh is smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Store in the fridge for up to 1 week or freeze for up to 3 months.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
- Prepare pie crust by mixing together the flour and salt. Cut shortening into flour; add cold water 1 tablespoon at a time (you may need only 3 tablespoons, or up to 4 tablespoons). Mix dough and repeat until dough is moist enough to hold together.
- With lightly floured, hands shape dough into a ball. On a lightly floured board roll dough out to about 1/8 inch thickness. With a sharp knife, cut dough 1 1/2 inch larger than the upside-down 8- to 9-inch pie pan. Gently roll the dough around the rolling pin and transfer it right-side up onto the pie pan. Unroll, easing dough into the bottom of the pie pan.
- In a large bowl, beat pumpkin with evaporated milk, eggs, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg and salt with an electric mixer or immersion blender. Mix well. Pour into a prepared crust. Bake 40 minutes or until when a knife is inserted 1 inch from the edge comes out clean.

5 TRICKS FOR MAKING FRESH PUMPKIN PUREE - FOOD NETWORK
From foodnetwork.com
Estimated Reading Time 4 mins
- Choose the Correct Pumpkin Variety. Surprise, the jack-o-lantern, also known as the carving pumpkin, is not our first pick here. Carving pumpkins are more fibrous and watery than other types of gourds.
- Roast Your Way to Pumpkin Puree. The most common way to make pumpkin puree is to simply roast your pumpkin in the oven, just like Alton Brown. Fire up your oven to 400 degrees, roll up your sleeves and halve the pumpkin with a sharp chef’s knife.
- Or Make Pumpkin Puree in the Instant Pot. If you have an Instant Pot, great news: you can pressure cook an entire pumpkin to make pumpkin puree. Smaller, three- to four-pound pumpkins work best here.
- Use This Trick to Concentrate Pumpkin Flavor. If your pumpkin puree is too watery for your liking, no sweat. Grab a clean linen (preferably one that you don’t mind turning orange), or a double-lined piece of cheese cloth, and drape the cloth over a fine mesh strainer or colander set inside a bowl.
- How to Store Fresh Pumpkin Puree. Before storing your freshly made pumpkin puree, make sure to cool it completely. Then stash it in an airtight container in the fridge for about one week or in the freezer forup to six months.
