Didn't realize it was considered "liquid" and so I put it in my carry-on. It was tossed.

Apparently that is the answer to the wateriness thing. Having never made a pumpkin pie, tomorrow I will try the hummingbird bakery book version. If it works I will be most surprised! But having messed up carving the pumpkin I thought I had better try to do something with it.

Good thing it is easy to make at home as well. Just roast the pumpkins to concentrate (caramelize)their flavor, puree & let it strain through a cheesecloth to get rid of escess moisture. Hope you try it sometime then you won't have to rely on having to guard your canned goods :) Nice to have known your blog through The Cake Slice.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15116781195928711601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6687817399137597581.post-8379227391457794752010-10-21T07:08:54.261+01:002010-10-21T07:08:54.261+01:00Your cake looks fantastic and I'm glad you tho...Your cake looks fantastic and I'm glad you thought it worthy of your pumpkin puree.
