Pumpkin jam
The end of October is invariably associated with the pumpkin. But, as a rule, in the form of Jack's Lamp carved out of it - the main attribute of Halloween. We decided to dedicate a whole week to the orange vegetable and cook the most delicious and unusual dishes from pumpkin. And we will start with pumpkin jam, which, by the way, is the only jam that helps... to lose weight!
