Younger Japanese (and not a few older ones) love Halloween. Millions of people strut their spooky stuff in Tokyo, Osaka and other cities in Japan on Halloween night - if you're ever in Japan over Halloween, you have to go and take a look - you'll never have seen anything like it! On a related note, I've been using some of my home grown Japanese kabocha pumpkins on perfecting a pumpkin scone recipe - if you've never tried pumpkin scones, I think you're in for a pleasant surprise - using pumpkin makes the scone soft, moist and sweet. Serve them up with some whipped cream and jam and you'll send away any "trick or treater" with a big smile on their face!
If you want to get cooking, you can find the written recipe by clicking Kabocha Scones and the Youtube video tutorial by clicking Kabocha Scones.
Happy Halloween! Kurumi XXXX.
