Pumpkin Mash
by:
Well, Dominicans like mashes a lot, especially for breakfasts and dinners. The most common and popular or course is the legendary mangú (pronounced /man-goo/) but there are many others that we prepare and highly favor. One of them is the pumpkin mash. Please bear in mind that the Dominican Pumpkin is not exactly the same variety found in other places and especially not the common variety found in the United States. Its not particularly sweet and the mash is consumed very similarly to how mash potatoes are in the US. When you get a very creamy pumpkin (good) you dont need a lot of help. When you get a watery one (bad) its hard to make a good mash. Nevertheless, things that you use to try to help the mash a bit when your pumpkin is not optimal are: evaporated milk, buttermilk, cream cheese, etc. In this case, were getting amazing pumpkins from our farm (yes, we have a farm, which is why were publishing a bit less now!) and they dont need that much help.

preparation
1. Really? LOL. Just boil, puree and mix to a creamy perfect mash. We serve with vinaigrette onions on top and fried eggs, salami or fried cheese.
2. Don’t forget to subscribe and stay tuned. I have more recipes than time these days, but will try to upload a few good traditional Dominican dishes in the next few days.
