We all know that pumpkin pie is super, so why not enjoy more of this delicious, nutritious squash in year-round recipes? Dee Dee Stovel carves out a new image for pumpkin with such creative combinations as Roasted Ginger Pumpkin & Pear Soup; Pumpkin Sage Risotto; Spring Spinach Salad with Strawberries and Pepitas; White Bean, Chicken, and Pumpkin Chili; Pumpkin Pizza with Gorgonzola Cheese; and Pork Tenderloin with Red Wine Pumpkin Sauce.
These 125 recipes celebrate the varied ways that pumpkin can enhance a wide range of dishes, from beverages, starters, and snacks to soups, salads, main courses, and, of course, pies, cookies, breads, and cakes. Whether starting from the whole pumpkin (which, Stovel shows, is easier than many may think) or from canned pumpkin (a fine alternative), cooks will be surprised by the variety of ways they can use the entire fruit, including blossoms and seeds, as well as the pulp itself.
Special features include complete menus and decorating and entertaining ideas for harvest celebrations and Halloween parties, as well as sidebars highlighting pumpkin festivals, lore, and growing facts. With pumpkin acreage and sales growing every year, and more health writers touting the fruit’s nutritional powers, Pumpkin comes to the rescue for everyone who wants to expand their cooking repertoire.

Pumpkin a Super Food for All 12 Months of the YearReview by Virginia Degner, 2010-08-09
This cook book is entirely about cooking pumpkins from vegetable side dishes to desserts. I am growing pumpkins this summer and hope to have enough to try a lot of the recipes. I particularly enjoyed an augratin pumpkin casserole with carmelized onions that I fixed as side dish for Thanksgiving last year. This cookbook will expand your awareness of what you can do with pumpkin and is a must have for any modern cook.

Pumpkin Lovers!
Review by GIJANE, 2008-05-19
I absolutely LOVE pumpkin, but I didn't know how to cook with fresh pumpkin. This book is excellent for not only providing instruction on how to cook fresh pumpkin but it also gives unique and wonderful recipes. There are some traditional recipes, such as a variety of pumpkin soups, however, there are others like risotto and pumpkin gratin. So if you love pumpkin and like to try new things... this is a wonderful book that is easy to use!

Review by Vivienne P. Cleary, 2007-09-28
I love pumpkin pie and make it every year. But when I saw this book I was intruiged. Can you really make a dish for every course with pumpkin? Surely not! Oh, but yes... you can. I am hooked.
I am a pumpkin-cooking fool now!
So yummy, so good for you and it makes you smile. I've even been inspired to use pumpkin in some of my old favorite recipes. The fam loves it and my coworkers are begging me for the recipes. Well, they're getting copies of this book for christmas :)
