Can you say 'pressure cooking pumpkin' five times real fast?

It doesn't matter if you can say it, just as long as you do it....  In my adventures in pressure cooking, pumpkin has been one of the treats I've made.

Actually it's quite simple.... the hardest part was cutting thru the pumpkin.  Once you do that, simply cut it into strips, and fill you pressure cooker.  No need to peel it, just chunk it up, and pile it in the pressure cooker with about an inch or water in the base.

I didn't worry about over-filling the cooker, as the pumpkin wasn't a solid mass, and there was room for movement.  This actually isn't as full as the picture appears though... This was actually right at/slightly above the max-fill line.

I then pressure cooked it for 5 minutes per my cooker's directions.  THis still blows my mind!  Five minutes and you have a wonderfully cooked food with all of the nutrients contained and not wasted!

Tomorrow (if I can get it together, and find the time) what I did with the pumpkin....
