Measurements#
I live in the US and cook with imperial measurement tools. However, I’ve found great success in utilizing metric grams in place of imperial cups, ounces, pounds, and so forth. A handy kitchen scale makes measuring ingredients fast, simple, accurate, and reproducible. Some imperial measurements remain in my recipes (ex: one 15 ounce can) mainly because it makes for easy shopping for and cooking with prepackaged goods sold in the US.

I finally decided to try making a pumpkin pie using a real live pumpkin as opposed to canned pumpkin. I picked up a nice sized pie pumpkin at the Dekalb Farmer’s Market, found a recipe, and set out to make the pie. It was simple, easy, and required very little effort. All redundant statements- just to underscore how crazy easy it us to use a fresh pumpkin. I’ll never buy a can of pumpkin puree again!...
Notes Parsnips wider than 1 inch may have tough, fibrous cores that are best trimmed and discarded. Using warm water helps the sugar to dissolve more readily.

A fantastic pie which is fairly easy to make; albeit somewhat time-consuming. My changes to the recipe yield a tarter and naturally flavored pie. The crumble topping can be swapped for a traditional crust. If so desired, make full batch of Pâte Brisée and include the spices from the crumble with the apple maceration.
