what part of the pumpkin do u use in a pumpkin pie?

Answer 1

you use the stem

Answer 2

Take the rind (peel) off and take the seeds from the inside of the pumpkin. The rest is what I would call the "meat" of the melon which would then be cooked and used to make a pumpkin pie.

Luscious Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie
SUBMITTED BY: Cathryn Gross

"This pumpkin pie has a cookie crust, vanilla ice cream and pumpkin. It's served with whipped cream and chocolate curls. Yum!"
Original recipe yield: 1 - 9 inch pie

PREP TIME 1 Hr 50 Min
READY IN 1 Hr 50 Min

INGREDIENTS
50 vanilla wafer cookies
1/2 cup walnuts
1/4 cup butter, melted
2 tablespoons maple syrup
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
1 cup canned pumpkin puree
2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

3/4 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons granulated sugar

4 tablespoons shortening
2/3 cup semisweet chocolate chips
DIRECTIONS
In a blender or food processor, blend the vanilla wafer cookies and walnuts into fine crumbs. Transfer to a 9 inch pie pan. Mix in the butter and maple syrup. Using a fork, press firmly and evenly onto the bottom and sides of the pie pan to create a crust. Chill 10 minutes in the freezer.
In a large bowl, blend the vanilla ice cream, pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice. Spoon into the pie crust. Smooth top with a spatula. Chill 1 hour in the freezer, or until firm.
Before serving pie, place the heavy cream and granulated sugar in a small bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on high speed until peaks form. Spoon into a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe around the edge of the pie.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt shortening and chocolate chips, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a small plastic container and chill in the freezer 30 minutes, or until firm.
Remove chocolate from container. Using a vegetable peeler or cheese slicer, scrape the chocolate to form small curls. Use the curls to decorate the pie

Answer 4

Mmmmmmmmmm, pumpkin pie. :) You take out the seeds and set aside for roasting later, cut it up into manageable chunks, cut off the outside and the stringy stuff and then put it in a pot and boil it just like you would for mashed potatoes. You can mash it up real good after that or puree small amounts in a blender to make it real smooth. Now I'm hungry!!

Answer 5

You use the flesh. Prepare it as you would a butternut squash -- cut it in pieces, scrape out the seeds and fibers in the center, peel it, and cut flesh (solid part of the pumpkin) in pieces. I don't make pies, so am not sure what to do with it then. I'm pretty sure you cook it first, then mix with spices and sugar, but I don't really know what then. Enjoy!

Answer 6

The insides, open the precise of the shell scoop out the insides, separate the seeds out for roasting. Then cook dinner that area till it comfortable and use it like mashed potatoes or pie.

Answer 7

The inside, minus the seeds

Answer 8

The seeds.
Throw the rest away.
