Cushaw Pie image

This is my very favorite pie. It is similar to a pumpkin pie, but much better to me. A cushaw is a squash. It's white with green stripes on it, a bulb at one end with a long neck.

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups cooked cushaw
1/2 cup evaporated milk
1 egg
1 cup sugar
2 t. butter
nutmeg to taste
1 unbaked pie shell

Steps:

  • 1. Prepare squash by cutting off rind and seeding it. Cut into small chunks.
  • 2. Cook enough cushaw to equal 2 cups. This can be done by putting a small amount of water in a pan and slowly cooking it so it won't stick. Another way is to put cushaw in a microwave safe bowl, cover and microwave until soft.
  • 3. Put cooked cushaw in mixing bowl.
  • 4. Add remaining ingredients and mix until blended well.
  • 5. Pour into pie shell and bake at 350 degrees until done, about 45 minutes or until center doesn't jiggle.
  • 6. Take raw cushaw and freeze. Use another day.

This recipe is a lifesaver! I had some leftover cushaw and I didn't know what to do with it. This pie was the perfect solution.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pie turned out really runny. I think I might have added too much milk.

This pie was a little too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I've never had cushaw pie before, but I'm so glad I tried this recipe. It was delicious! The filling was smooth and flavorful, and the crust was perfectly flaky.

This cushaw pie was a hit! The filling was sweet and creamy, with a hint of nutmeg and cinnamon. The crust was flaky and buttery. I will definitely be making this pie again.
