Pumpkins and squashes  

Pumpkins and squashes

Squash and pumpkin belong to the gourd family and can be divided into two types: summer squash and autumn squash. They are rich in nutrients like vitamin A and vitamin C, which are beneficial for our eyes and skin. It"s interesting to note that pumpkins are considered fruits because they contain plant seeds (berries in this case). In 2003, Starbucks introduced a seasonal hit, the pumpkin spice latte, a drink made with pumpkin spice, steamed milk, espresso and other spices. Pumpkins and squashes can be used to create dishes such as squash soups, pumpkin pie and squash risottos. Their versatility in the kitchen allows for exploration while evoking a comforting sense of nostalgia.
