I love pumpkins and come October I look forward to using pumpkin in everything - soups, subjis, cookies. I have a limited repertoire though, so I'm always looking for new stuff and I was excited this weekend when i came across a recipe for pumpkin with pasta, something I'd never tried before. Below is a pic, the recipe I used was Mario Batali's Ziti alla Zucca (Ziti with pumpkin).
If you're reeling at the combination, do try it, it's delicious!! I added some walnuts because I like to have some crunch in my pasta.
The only version I HATE is pumpkin pie so this year I'm going to play around with recipes until I come up with an acceptable version for me :) Cant wait! And of course, you will read all about it here.

So, suggestions- any favorite or unusual pumpkin (I mean the red pumpkin here) recipes I should be trying out?

This looks sooo yummy!!!
The addition of walnuts is a great idea, my wife usually makes salads with walnuts.
She also makes a nice pumpkin soup, just boiled pureed pumpkin with some ginger & salt & pepper.
Any luck with BF in Paris ?
I had some nice halwa kaddu yest.
Samir, the pumpkin soup sounds good.
smita - thnx :)
samir - i add nuts to everything :) havnt yet got bf in paris, will let you know how it goes. however with the contessa's track record with butter and fat i have a feeling i wont want to cook anything from it :(
avdi - oh yes, i love halwa! i've only eaten it made of lauki though. any other pumpkins used to make it?
I feel its the magic of ur hands which makes even a pumpkin look and taste so good (don't ask me how did I taste it? its a strong intuition I tell you) :)
