Try roast pumpkin seeds if you get the chance they are delicious. Like huge sunflower seeds. Good drinking snack. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'no, it's not, just you try it...' and I did as I always trusted my grandma...and it was delicious... after that I never trusted any adults except fer my grandma again... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for making such a mind blowing observation. Although the question was phrased using the topic as pumpkin pie it was more of an invitation to see if Germany used pumpkins for anything edible. Why do you try to spoil a thread that is otherwise one of the more friendly on TV? Again please stick top posting food or recipes or something useful. In interest of this thread I simply won't respond to your off topic comments again. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof Naam does it again! introducing the seed of central andean cuisine into an otherwise barren culinary landscape...I really useta like the local salsa in CBBA...slather it on potatoes, bread, anything...a tbbl spoon stirred into a caldo at lunch time is indescribable with wonderful fresh bread rolls...
