WINTER SQUASH PIE
Could you make Claire Fountain's traditional pumpkin pie with a can of processed orange mystery pulp? Of course, Ms. Fountain says - if you think you can live with yourself after. But you'll need to turn in your C.S.A. badge and your copy of "The Omnivore's Dilemma."

Steps:
- Slice the squash in half. This is the moment for the biggest knife in the drawer. Scoop out the seeds. Place each half facedown on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil. Bake for 30 to 50 minutes at 385 degrees, until squash feels soft on the outside.
- After it cools from blistering to merely hot, scrape the meat from the skin with a spoon. Run the squash through a food processor until it looks like baby food. Measure 15 ounces - or roughly 2 1/4 cups - for the pie. Go ahead and feed the rest to a baby.
- Beat the eggs. Add sugar and beat some more. Add heavy cream.
- Combine the cooked squash purée with the egg batter.
- Toss the cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt in a bowl.
- Add the spice mixture to the squash goop. Unless you want a mouthful of cloves, might as well stir again.
- If your Thanksgiving table is filled with blue-ribbon bakers who can detect a little soft dough from across the room, blind-bake the crust for a flakier bottom. If you're anyone else - including Ms. Fountain, at times - you'll probably skip this step.
- Pour the filling into the pie crust. Bake the pie at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. Or 45. Or maybe 50. But don't overbake. If the center jiggles like the back end of one of those music video dancers you wish the kids wouldn't watch, it's done. Serve with fresh whipped cream. After the kids go to sleep, Ms. Fountain says, whip in a shot of rum.

WINTER SQUASH PIE
When I was a kid, everybody made pumpkin pie from a can and I didn't get it. There were beautiful squashes in the fields in October and November just screaming to be made into a fresh pie, which is why I love to make a sweet, beautiful faux pumpkin or squash pie.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Cut the squash in half, sprinkle both halves with the salt and sugar, and dot with 2 tablespoons butter. Bake in a casserole for one hour or until tender. Remove from oven and let cool. (Note: The squash can be roasted and scooped from the skin 3 days in advance.)
- Put the flour onto a clean surface or into a large bowl and make a well in the center. To the well, add the salt, the sugar, the butter, and 1 tablespoon cold water (add more if needed). With your fingertips, push the flour and butter together until large clumps form. Scoop the mixture together and with the heel of your hand, push until the dough comes together. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for 1 hour, or freeze for up to 2 weeks.
- Dust a clean surface with flour; with the end of a rolling pin, pound the chilled dough into a large disc.
- Roll the dough to fit an 11-inch pie plate: start from the center and roll away from yourself. Transfer the dough to the pie plate and gently press the dough into the plate and chill for at least 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Place a large piece of parchment over the dough and weigh it down with pie weights or dried beans. Bake until the edges are golden brown, 15-20 minutes, rotating once. Remove from the oven, pour the beans into a heat-proof pan, and cool the crust. (Note: The crust can be rolled out and pre-baked up to 3 days in advance. After cooling, cover with plastic wrap or foil and store at room temperature.)
- For the filling, remove and discard the seeds from the cooked squash. Scoop the flesh into a large bowl. Add the cream, eggs, brown sugar, nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice, pinch of salt, lemon zest, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter. Whisk to combine, leaving the squash chunky.
- Pour the mixture into the pie crust. Bake until the custard is set and golden-brown, 40-50 minutes.
- Let cool and serve with cinnamon-flavored whipped cream.
SAVORY WINTER SQUASH PIE
Instead of using frozen winter squash, you can roast butternut or acorn squash until tender and then mash it before getting started on this recipe. The bacon roses are a fun garnish, but this winter squash pie can easily be made without them. -Erica Sinclair, Hamilton, Ontario

WINTER SQUASH PIE
Winter squash come in many sizes and shapes, but all have hard outer rinds that surround sweet, often orange flesh. Winter squash arrive late in the growing season and have a long storage life, so they've long been a staple in winter and spring when other vegetables are harder to come by. Pumpkin, acorn squash, Hubbard squash, buttercup and butternut squash are all examples of this wonderful vegetable. This recipe only uses one cup of squash, so it's a good way to recycle a little dab of leftover squash into something new and wonderful. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.

WINTER SQUASH/PUMPKIN PIE
I do not like canned or processed pumpkin. I looked years for a recipe i like and this is it. To spice it up a bit try Captain Morgans spiced Rum. Prep time does not include the time to cook the squash or make the pie shell.

Steps:
- Put the flour in a mixing bowl, and add the butter and ½ tsp fine salt. Rub gently with your fingertips until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs, or blitz in a food processor. Stir through the herbs, lemon zest and cheddar. Beat the egg yolk with 50ml cold water, add to the bowl and mix until it forms a dough. Add more water, 1 tsp at a time, until it comes together into a smooth dough. Wrap and chill in the fridge while you make the filling.
- Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Toss the squash pieces with 1 tbsp olive oil and some seasoning. Tip onto a baking tray and roast for 25-30 mins until golden and tender. Leave to cool.
- Meanwhile, put the cloves of garlic in a saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to a simmer. Cook for 2-3 mins, then drain. Wipe the pan dry, add the garlic back in with 1 tbsp olive oil and fry on a high heat for 2 mins until golden. Add the balsamic vinegar and 100ml boiling water, bring back to the boil then turn down and simmer for 10 mins.
- Add the honey, most of the rosemary and thyme and a good pinch of salt. Continue to cook on a medium heat for a further 3-5 mins, or until most of the liquid has evaporated and the garlic cloves are coated in a dark syrup.
- Tip the cooled squash into a bowl and add the cheese, crème fraîche, lemon juice, mustard, parsley, a splash of Worcestershire sauce and the beaten eggs. Add a good pinch of salt and black pepper and gently fold in the garlic cloves.
- Roll out the pastry on a work surface dusted with flour to 3-4mm thick. Line a 23cm-diameter springform or loose-based cake tin with the pastry, ensuring a little spills over the edges (the pastry is quite short - you can patch up when lining the tin, if needed). Pour the filling into the pastry case.
- Pat the drained beans dry using kitchen paper and dress with a little olive oil, most of the lemon zest and a good pinch of salt, then scatter over the squash filling. Finish with the reserved rosemary and thyme, the sage, and a drizzle of olive oil. Bake for 1 hr-1 hr 10 mins or until the filling has set and the beans have popped and are crisp. Trim the edge of the pastry to neaten.
- Remove from the oven and leave to cool a little (about 20 mins), then take it out of the tin. Scatter the remaning lemon zest and more herbs on top and serve warm. Leftovers are great cold, too.
