The secret to making pumpkin dessert

For pumpkin dessert, the first step is choosing a pumpkin with the right level of ripeness. The flesh of the pumpkin should be neither too hard nor too soft.

The flesh should separate into fibers. Hard pumpkins remain tasteless, while soft pumpkins fall apart easily and absorb more syrup than necessary.

You should first cut the outermost skin of the pumpkin with a knife, and then continue peeling with a peeler until the green parts are gone.

You should start chopping only after peeling. Chop the pumpkins into large pieces; if you chop them too small, they will fall apart and turn into puree while cooking.

Pumpkin Dessert Ingredients:

1 kg pumpkin
2 cups granulated sugar
Half a tea glass of water
1 packet Pakmaya Vanilla Sugar
