It was so hard to cut. Then I looked at the microwave. I you can microwave other stuff then surely a whole butternut pumpkin? It worked a treat so I carried on making pumpkin pie. I remembered to puncture the skin. Have you ever microwaved a pumpkin?

That is original. How long did you need to microwave it for to turn soft?

Never microwaved a pumpkin but did microwave a small rutabaga and it was delicious.

Nice to know that this works- and good that you punctured the skin. I'm not sure I would have thought of that. And I've just come in from planting some butternut seedlings. We had a good crop last year.
