Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

I felt that the amount of red wine vinegar (1 1/2 cups) called for in the recipe was too much, resulting in a very tart rather than sweet chutney. Perhaps is was a typo. I more than doubled the amount of sugar called for in the recipe to compensate. If I made this again I would start with 1/2 cup vinegar, adding a bit more after tasting.
