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.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

This is so close to being an excellent recipe. The end result just lacked a little flavor. We added some garlic chili sauce (a couple of teaspoons) and that really gave it the kick of warmth that it needed. You could add hot sauce or a different Asian sauce to vary the flavor.
