Pumpkins

 

As a chef, I’ve got to say that pumpkins are one of the most versatile and underrated ingredients in the kitchen. Their naturally sweet, earthy flavour is just perfect for both savoury and sweet dishes. You can use them in everything from silky soups and hearty risottos to spiced desserts and rich breads. The flesh roasts beautifully, turning into a deep, nutty sweetness. And the seeds—when cleaned and toasted—make a great crunchy garnish or snack. I love how different varieties bring different textures and flavours: sugar pumpkins for pies, kabocha for velvety purees, and even the stringier varieties for rustic stews. It’s hard to find an ingredient with such a wide range of culinary potential, all wrapped up in such a humble, vibrant package.

Have you looked at our new autumn menu, it features a rich and silky pumpkin velouté which I finish with a hint of truffle oil!
