Marina di Chioggia

This is an Italian heirloom pumpkin from Chioggia, the same place that produced the famous beets of that name. This pumpkin came from Sheldon Farms in Salem, N.Y. and was the one I photographed roasted for my "Taste of the Week."

Ah, but what did you do with this lovely zucco besides take it's picture?
We're in full zucco season at the moment....

Judith, this was one of the pumpkins I roasted and used to make a roast pumpkin soup.
