black futsu pumpkin
This Japanese heirloom is an easy favorite. Fruit is green black and changes to a silvery frost as it ripens, making it beautiful and slightly spooky, just in time for autumn holidays. Like an acorn squash with a sweet and nutty flavor, futsu has a creamier texture and can be prepared in more ways - roasted, fried, pickled - or eaten raw. Skin is edible too, simply cut into slices, scoop out seeds and enjoy.
