Chef Azari presents us with the traditional Mexican recipe for pumpkin in syrup, perfect for celebrating the Day of the Dead. It is a delicious pumpkin with a rich piloncillo syrup.
Soak the pumpkin cut into large pieces in water with three tablespoons of lime or calcium carbonate for 24 hours. Rinse it. Insert a clove into each piece of pumpkin to perfume it.
Place water in a pot and heat until boiling, add the cinnamon. Let it boil for about a minute. Grate the piloncillo and add it to the water to make a syrup, stirring constantly to dissolve it well. Add the sugar.
Once the piloncillo is well dissolved, add the pumpkin and guavas. Let it boil until the pumpkin is cooked. Meanwhile, gently stir the ingredients to avoid breaking the pumpkin.
In a bowl, whip the cream with a whisk until it is perfectly aerated and has a smooth texture. This whipped cream with this texture is also called nata montada.
