Read the paragraph from the section “How To Make A Pumpkin Puree.”
If you're making a pie, you'll need puree. Carefully slice your pumpkin in half. Cut off the stem and scrape out the seeds. Put the halves face down in a baking dish, cover with foil and bake at 375 degrees for an hour and a half until soft. Remove the flesh and puree it in a food processor. To remove some of the water, wrap the puree in a kitchen towel and let it drain in a colander for an hour.
