I never thought to use the strings and seeds of pumpkins/squash to make stock, what a FAB idea! Just bought a wee local squash for Halloween and will definitely give this a try when it all gets recycled in the galley the next day! Thanks Ladies, listens to the podcast is always a bright spot in my week.

I use it to make a fond. Melt a little butter and cook the stringy bits and seeds with the intention of getting browned bits on the bottom of the pan, removed all the solids and deglaze the pan with stock or wine scraping up all the browned bits.
Using pumpkin/squash: In the book The New Southwest: Classic Flavors with a Modern Twist by Meagan Micozzi there is a recipe for pumpkin flautas that is so simple but so amazing. My husband said I should make them again and make them often. I found the book at my local library.
Hi, I’m fairly new to the podcast and not sure where you go to find the “show notes” that are mentioned. I also want to find the recipe for Joy’s vegan nacho cheese sauce, but didn’t see a link for it in the show synopsis above. Can someone help with that? Thank you.
Hi Kathy. These are the show notes. As Joy said in the episode, she wrote the vegan nacho cheese sauce for a Washington Post article. The piece just ran today, so she wasn’t able to share it until the piece went live.
