Butternut pumpkin
The flesh of butternut pumpkin is slightly paler than that of a Jap pumpkin. It has a tear drop shape and is sweet in flavour. It's slightly easier to cut as the skin is less tough than the larger Jap pumpkin.

Butternut pumpkins can be purchased whole of in pieces.

Avoid cut pieces that look very dry at the cut end or pieces that are damp in patches.

Once cut store them in the fridge. Whole pumpkins will store well out of the fridge for a week or two
