Cooking tips

  • Hard-skinned pumpkins are difficult to cut; microwaving them for about 2 minutes makes slicing and scooping much easier and safer.
  • Adding a small amount of olive oil when cooking rice enhances its sheen and brings out the rich flavors of the assorted ingredients.
  • Do not immediately transfer the cooked rice into the pumpkin. Spread it out flat to let some steam escape, preventing the rice from becoming soggy due to trapped moisture later.

Recommended for

  • Those who want to serve a thoughtful, heartfelt dish for parents' birthdays or special occasions.
  • Home cooks eager to make kabocha squash nutritious rice step by step at home.
