STUFFED PUMPKIN

Giới thiệu

This dish looks appealing and will impress guests when served! It’s also delicious. It’s easy to make, though the part of cutting off the top of the pumpkin can be a bit tedious and you might worry about cutting yourself.
I use this type of pumpkin because the meat is very thick and firm, making it extremely tasty and fragrant. Some pumpkins have mushy flesh, which is quite unappetizing. So when buying pumpkins, make sure to choose one with firm flesh and that feels heavy.

Simple, delicious yet ancient?
Stuffed pumpkin is a dish with ancient roots, particularly in Native American cuisine. Pumpkins were a staple crop for many indigenous peoples, who would often hollow them out and fill them with a mixture of meats, grains, and herbs before cooking them. This method made use of the pumpkin as both a cooking vessel and a food source, minimizing waste and maximizing flavor.

Do you know:
1. Pork: Pork is a high-protein food and is rich in several B vitamins that are essential for various bodily functions. It contains thiamin, niacin, and vitamin B6, which are necessary for energy production and optimal brain function. It's also a good source of zinc and selenium, minerals that help boost the immune system. However, pork can be high in saturated fat and cholesterol, which can contribute to heart disease if consumed in excess. Certain cuts of pork, such as ribs, can be particularly high in fat. Therefore, individuals with heart disease or those watching their weight should opt for lean cuts of pork, like tenderloin or loin chops.

2. Pumpkin: Pumpkin is packed with nutrients and is a fantastic source of beta-carotene, a powerful antioxidant that gives the vegetable its bright orange color. The body converts beta-carotene into vitamin A, which is essential for eye health. Pumpkin is also high in fiber, which aids in digestion and can help with weight loss. However, canned pumpkin pie mix often contains added sugars, which can lead to weight gain and other health problems if consumed in excess. Therefore, it's best to stick with fresh pumpkin or canned pumpkin without added sugars.

3. Onion: Onions are low in calories yet high in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C, B vitamins, and potassium. They are also rich in antioxidants, particularly quercetin, which can reduce inflammation and lower blood pressure. However, onions are also known to cause bloating and other digestive problems in some people. Those with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) may want to avoid them. 

4. Garlic: Garlic is low in calories and rich in vitamin C, vitamin B6, and manganese. It also contains trace amounts of various other nutrients. Garlic can combat sickness, including the common cold, and its active compounds can reduce blood pressure. However, garlic can cause bad breath, and some people may be allergic to it. It can also interfere with certain medications, so those with health conditions should consult their doctor before consuming large amounts of garlic.
