Directions
Remove the seeds of the pumpkin. Also remove part of the skin so that seasoning will penetrate. Cut the pumpkin into eating pieces. In a flat bottomed pan, arrange the pumpkin so that the skin is at the bottom, add 1 1/2 cups Dashi, bring to a boil and cook about 3 minutes with a smaller than the actual lid in a low flame. Add 1 1/2 sugar, sake 2 Tbsp. and cook 5 to 6 minutes longer. Then add Mirin, 1 1/2 Tbsp. lite soy sauce and cook until the pumpkin is soft. After turning off the heat, leave as it is for 3 minutes for the seasoning to settle. When cooking be sure that the heat is not too strong as to break up the pumpkin.
