Serving
Pumpkins and gourds that ripen in the fall are somewhat different from those that ripen in the summer. We pick summer pumpkins when they are quite small ..., because they are the tastiest then. Autumn-winter varieties, such as early, buttermut and muscat de Provence, reach their full maturity only a month after harvest. During this period, their carbohydrates are converted into sugars, their meat and skin change color, and the meat becomes fragrant, sweet and attractive. Storing pumpkins is so easy that you can keep them in your apartment for a while as a decoration, and then one day just eat them! The temperature of the room in which you keep them should not fall below 5 ° C and ideal conditions are in the range of 10-21 ° C.
