Step by step

Add the crumbled amaretti to the pumpkin purée

Tips
If you don’t want to cook the pumpkin in a saucepan, you can use the oven. All you have to do is turn on the oven to 180°C and place the slices of pumpkin, well separated from each other, on some baking parchment. In three quarters of an hour, the flesh will be perfectly cooked.
Trivia
The Italian name for pumpkin ‘zucca’ comes from the Latin "cocutia", which evolved into "cocuzza, cocuzzae", and from there to ‘zucca’. Pumpkin is rich in vitamins and minerals, but has very little salt. That's why it is a saying in Italy "to have salt in your pumpkin", meaning to have plenty of good sense.
