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.

Made this recipe yesterday. I used 8 cups of bing cherries, 1/2c amaretto, and used 1/4 tsp of cloves instead of 1/2tsp. Followed everything else in the recipe. The clove taste was good and 1/2tsp would have ruined it for my tastes. Tasted great on fresh biscuits this morning. This recipe is a keeper :)

This was really delicious. I swapped the almond liqueur for 1 teaspoon almond extract and added 1 teaspoon of butter to reduce foaming. Instead of chopping them, I halved the cherries and mashed them around as I stirred. Great texture, flavor, color, everything!
