Muscade de Provence
from our plotA deeply ribbed, flat, burnt-orange French heirloom that looks like it belongs in a still life painting. The flesh is intensely sweet and musky — 'muscade' — and the flavour is in a different league from carving pumpkins. The one you grow for eating, not decorating.
in the kitchen
Pumpkin ravioli with brown butter and sage
Roast the flesh until sweet and concentrated, blitz with ricotta and nutmeg, fill fresh pasta. Serve with brown butter, crispy sage, and a grating of parmesan. The kind of dish that makes people go very quiet.
