How To Cook a Pumpkin

Cut a small pie pumpkin in half, horizontally. Scoop out the seeds and set aside for baking later. Scrape out as much of the stringy stuff as you can. Place each half, open side down on a baking sheet. (I use 3 pumpkins to make 1 deep dish pie and 1 full recipe of the bisque.)

Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or more until the pumpkin is "fork tender". Remove the peel, and puree what is left in the food processor. Now you are ready to add the pumpkin to your recipe. It should look very similar to what is in the Libby's can!
