Pumpkins make beautiful carriages if you have a fairy godmother around; if you don’t, they still make fantastic dishes (and you won’t be surprised come midnight!). Join James Beard Award-winning cookbook author Chef Peter Berley in reinventing the pumpkin into more dishes than you'd ever imagine, both savory and sweet. Your remarkably varied (and delicious!) menu includes: crispy pumpkin ravioli with spicy tomato dip; pumpkin lasagna with gruyère and sage béchamel; pumpkin leek risotto; maple roasted hokkaido pumpkin; roasted pumpkin with quinoa stuffing; spicy coconut sweet potato soup with collard greens; wild rice and pumpkin stew with cremini mushrooms and kale; pumpkin pots de crème; and pumpkin spice cake with brandied currants.
