Other sources (like apples, carrots) normally happen to be rather expensive when not in the peak of season. Red pumpkin, however, is 'in season' throughout the year unlike in the Western countries, where it is typically an autumn appearance.  We are just beginning to discover the wealth of nourishment supplied by the mildly sweet flavored and finely textured red pumpkin.
