Trader Joe's Organic Pumpkin, 425g

Seasonal! A staple of baking season, “just pumpkin” might be all you find inside a can of TJ's Organic Pumpkin, but it’s a jumping-off point to endless culinary experimentation. Of course, the velvety mouthfeel and naturally sweet, squashy flavour have the power to underpin cinnamon, ginger, citrus, nutmeg, and clove in the perfect Pumpkin Pie (aka The Official Dessert of Thanksgiving). And this purée of organically grown Cucurbitaceae has enjoyed increasing prominence outside the provenance of pie over the years, as the boast-worthy base of savoury seasonal favourites like pumpkin soup and pumpkin gnocchi.
