In Frank's kitchen *new set of pictures 18 March 2019*
Frank Fremerey:
I did some marinated wild boar, a pumpkin soup (Hokkaido) with sweet potatoes, celery and carrots and a fast pesto of ruccola, parmigiano, cashew, fresh garlic and Olive Oil. All very tasty. I also did some preperations for the freezer.
Akira:
The pesto looks delicious! Its serving dish looks nice, too, with its Japanese traditional Seigaiha-design pattern. Is "Hokkaido" the name of this pumpkin? It is the name of the northern island of Japanese archipelago where I was born...
Frank Fremerey:
I know the Geography. Yes, in Germany this Punpkin is named after your Nothern part. We like this pumpkin especially because it is very fine and you can use it as a whole
Akira:
Frank, strangely the pumpkin named "Hokkaido" is not something commonly seen here in Japan. Neither I or my mother has seen one. ::)
Akira:
Just googled. The "Hokkaido" pumpkin came actually from Hokkaido. In the early 90s, a Japanese living in Munich imported the seeds from Hokkaido and planted them with help of an organic farming site there.
