Pumpkin? Our hometown calls it "square melon". Although the shape is obviously round or long, it has to be called "square melon". Nobody can explain why.

There are many ways to make pumpkins. Let's share my usual methods.

(1) salty rice. Seeing these two words, friends will think that it must be cooked with salt. Actually, it's not. Here are several ways to make salty rice. The first method is to cut squashes, that is, pumpkins and sweet potatoes into pieces, put them in a pot, add water until they are soft and rotten, and then put corn flour on them to make corn paste, which is called "squashes and salty rice".

(2) Square winter melon porridge. After autumn, pumpkins are ripe, sweet potatoes are planed, and chestnuts in the mountains are taken home. At this time, our porridge will be rich. Cut the pumpkin and sweet potato into large pieces, then peel the chestnuts and cook them together in a pot. After boiling, add appropriate amount of rice and cook it into sweet potato porridge. Sweet pumpkins and chestnuts are delicious.

(3) pumpkin buns. Use tender pumpkins, add salt to remove water, and mix with meat to make steamed stuffed buns or jiaozi. It is really delicious. Friends can try. It is delicious.

Let's talk about the efficacy of pumpkin.

Everyone knows that eating pumpkins is good! I won't go into details one by one.

Let's say that the wife of a general affairs director in the school has swollen her legs for several years and it is very difficult to walk. I don't know where to find a way to eat pumpkins, so I planted a lot of pumpkins myself, cut them into pieces and steamed them every day, and actually cured my leg swelling.

Later, I learned that pumpkin is good for water dehumidification.
