Today we offer pumpkin velouté with goat cheese covered with Pistachio granules and embellished with Pistachio Pesto. Two mouth-watering products signed Sciara!

The main ingredient in this recipe is pumpkin, do you know all about it? These vegetables contain Beta Carotene, an antioxidant that protects the body from free radicals and strengthens the immune system. They are also a low-calorie food, rich in potassium, magnesium and vitamins. Pumpkin boasts anti-cancer properties, and the presence of water, 94 percent of its composition, makes it particularly good for maintaining hydration and proper water balance between the body and mucous membranes. What better excuse to fully enjoy it?

Historically, the pumpkin was cultivated as early as 5000 BC (even before corn) by South American tribes: the seeds are full of protein, and it was easily transportable, perfect for trade. Pumpkins, emptied of their pulp, were also used by farmers as containers for storing wine and carrying water. They were also one of the first musical instruments, primitive man already using them as a maracas by shaking it and making the seeds inside resonate.

Our friend and food blogger Elena Levati of ConUnPocoDiZucchero chose to combine pumpkin with goat cheese and Sciara Pistachio Pesto, a combination of flavors to try!
