This dish is spiced like a pumpkin pie, but not served in a crust. It dates from the 17th century and would have been eaten by the early Plymouth colonists or even among the well-to-do in England. I must admit, I haven't tried this yet so I really can't give much guidance on cooking times or servings.

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

8 cups peeled diced pumpkin
2 tablespoons vinegar
1/4 cup water
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

Directions

1
Put 2 cups of peeled diced pumpkin and 1/4 cup of water into a pot and cook gently over a low heat until they sink down.
2
Keep adding more pumpkin until you have used all 8 cups.
3
When cooked, the pumpkin will be tender and have kept much of its form, resembling stewed apples.
4
Do not add more water.
5
Remove from the heat and add butter, vinegar, brown sugar and spices.
6
Stir gently and serve.
7
Allow plenty of time to cook this dish.
8
It must be done very slowly.
