Grilled Pumpkin Salad

Grilled Pumpkin Salad

I’ve been feeling a little blue lately.

After making the blue cheese souffle, I wanted to find another recipe for the pungent cheese.  With a crisp Fall day on hand, and several pumpkins beckoning, I decided to throw some pumpkin slices on the grill.  I marinated the pumpkin slices with ginger, olive oil, salt, and pepper, and then tossed them on the grill.  A few grill marks later, I combined the hot gourds with blue cheese and the salad regulars, for a real American salad.

Indeed, pumpkins are one of the continent’s oldest crops, having been first cultivated thousands of years ago by Native American tribes.  During the colonial era, the tribes routinely prepared …

Pumpkin Pie with Pumpkin Seed Crust

Pumpkin Ginger Souffle

Nothing says Fall like the bright orange and reds that surround the season.

The glow of flickering candles set in hollowed-out pumpkins.  Crimson leaves swept aside by an errant football.  Classroom displays of construction-paper cornucopias and scissor-cut turkey feathers.  A scarecrow, straw tumbling from his furrowed brow, as he patrols a lonely field.  Thoughts of the harvest and a Thanksgiving meal.

Pumpkin Redux: Pumpkin Bread

When I first started cooking, the first effort was just that – a rough, initial effort to make something edible.  If things went awry, it was helpful to have ingredients in reserve.  So I got in the habit of stockpiling my cooking ammunition.  If a recipe called for a cup of something combustible, I tried to have an extra cup  (or two) on hand.

But as my learning curve has progressed,…
