Hi Martin,
The recipe looks good! Is the Hokkaido a sweet fleshed pumpkin (as opposed to a Hubbard)? I was wondering in case I can’t find one.
Thanks.

Sam,

here in Berlin we have a lot of “Hokkaido” pumpkin and also fairytale pumpkin squash. I searched and found that you call it “Ambercup Squash”.
BTW, the Hokkaido pumpkin could be used with paring, very helpful for cooking.
