About
A versatile whole ash pumpkin, also known as ash gourd or kohalae, with firm, meaty flesh and a distinct nutty flavour. At approximately 1.25kg, it’s a useful ingredient to keep on hand for a range of home-cooked dishes.
How to use
Cut and prepare the pumpkin for soups, stews and curries, or try it in a pie. Its substantial texture works well in slow-cooked dishes, where it can take on the flavours of your chosen spices and seasonings.
Storage
Keep the whole pumpkin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid refrigerating it, as cold temperatures may make the flesh soft.
