Preliminary shot of yesterday's made up dinner, just after adding the blowtorched mutton cubes and stirring. The ButterJap pumpkin is interesting, it's a very dense fine grained pumpkin with almost no stringyness and a very deep orange, you can see it here. Quite a different mouth feel, like a dense carrot. http://leecetheartist.dreamwidth.org/310509.html#cutid1 for more on this dish. As it became evening, I added some water and some gf alphabet noodles. The lemons I removed earlier as it was getting quite bitter from the pith - handy hint, gradually add salt until the bitterness recedes. Pith bitterness can vary from lemon to lemon and season to season, so sometimes I don't need to add any salt at all. (which is my preference) At the end of the day it turned out delicious!
