Homemade pumpkin puree

Many people don't like using the canned pumpkin. In such a case, you can make the pumpkin puree from scratch. For this, you need to preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wash the pumpkins properly and dry them off with a kitchen towel. Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds from a stingy pulp. Place the pumpkins in a roasting pan by brushing their skin with vegetable oil. Bake the pumpkin until it becomes soft. Cool it down and put the pulp in the food processor. Don't include the skin. Blend it to make the best puree.


Variations

● Add rum or brandy to the mixture.
● Pour maple syrup on top to make the mousse sweeter.
● Add some vanilla extract to get the vanilla flavor.
● Sprinkle a pinch of sea salt and crushed biscuits on top.
● You can mix Greek yogurt, cream cheese, or evaporated milk to the pumpkin pie filling or pumpkin puree to make the mousse creamier.

Serving techniques

Though pumpkin mousse is a simple dish, the way you present it can make it look like a very fancy one. Pumpkin is a very nice color. So, stacking it with white whipped cream and crunchy toppings can make it look extraordinary. You can sprinkle pumpkin seed, cinnamon, nutmeg, crushed almonds or marshmallows. You can either serve it in a large serving dish or small individual bowls. In both cases, choose one that is made of glass and transparent. As you are layering up the mousse, the layers will be evident from the sides of the transparent serving dish or bowl.

Tips

● Don't overwhip the whipping cream.
● Use pumpkin puree if you can't find pumpkin pie filling.

Health benefits of pumpkin

● It contains vitamin K, beta-carotene, vitamin C, vitamin E, and iron.
