Description

Green Local Pumpkin (Unripe):

• Description: This is a variety of pumpkin harvested while still green and unripe. The skin is typically smooth and firm, and the flesh inside is light green or pale yellow. The pumpkin is starchy and slightly sweet but lacks the depth of sweetness found in a fully ripe orange pumpkin.

• Uses: Local green pumpkins are often used in savory dishes. They are commonly used in making curries, stews, and soups, as they hold their shape well during cooking. The green pumpkin can also be roasted or stir-fried and is sometimes used in vegetable fritters or as a filling in dumplings. The firm flesh can also be used in mashed pumpkin or pumpkin puree for various dishes.
