Dishes made from this product always turn out delicious and aromatic.

But pumpkin can’t be combined with everything.

Biologist Alexander Sozykin spoke about this in more detail, writes Life .

He emphasized that one should not eat pumpkin with sweet and sour berries or dairy products. The fact is that they neutralize the taste of the vegetable itself.

It's much better to add cinnamon, fish, citrus or seafood to pumpkin.

Also goes well with nutmeg, pickled vegetables and mushrooms.

It is best to steam pumpkin, but you can also boil it. In this case, all the useful elements will be preserved.

But it is worth remembering that there is a category of people who are better off giving up pumpkin in their diet.
