Pumpkin Seeds - Old Boer White
Originating in South Africa. I first came across this beautiful, pure white pumpkin while in Cape Town. It is flatter than most other pumpkins, with pronounced ribbing to the skin. The white skin is a complete contrast to the creamy orange flesh inside. Having a very small seed cavity means that each of these 6.8-9kg (15-20lb) fruits has more usable, sweet flesh inside. Renowned across South Africa, not only for its great storing quality, but for its superb cooking and baking prowess. The skin is easily cut with a sharp knife, rather than needing a saw to cut it like some other pumpkins. Beautiful roasted and served with casseroles, or sprinkle with cumin and bake to make pumpkin chips. Why not take advantage of this ghostly white variety and be the talking point of the town at halloween.
