The following rules for cooking pumpkin may be used for any variety of winter squash, as the Cashaw or Hubbard. While they do not contain as much nourishment as rice or potatoes, they give variety to the daily diet.

Saw from the squash a piece, the required size, remove the seeds and bake at least one hour, or until perfectly tender. Serve in the shell, or it may be scooped out and mashed with a little butter.

This is exceedingly nice served with stewed or panned chicken.

Keep the remaining portion in a cold place to use as wanted.
