It´s pumpkin season and my all time favorite butternut squash. I love to use it in my cooking because it is equally as good in main dishes as desserts. It´s rich in taste and has a lovely creamy consistence. Pared with peanut, lemon and ginger the truly aroma of this amazing dish comes to live. It´s a fall delight and warms you up from the inside and out.
