Battle Pumpkin

Recipes inspired by “Iron Chef”, shown on August 3rd, 2001

  The only pumpkin battle that Ms. Masamura reviewed was

between Kensuki Sakai, a street vendor who cooks pasta

dishes on a food cart in Aoyama, and Kobe.

 Pre-program Ingredients:

                       1 - 15 oz. can Libby'sâ Solid Pack Pumpkin

                       1 - 14.5 oz. can Libby'sâ Sliced Stewed Tomatoes

                       1 - 14 oz. can Halstead Acresâ Whole Leaf Spinach

                       1 - 6oz. (4oz. drained) can Bumble Beeâ tiny cocktail shrimp

                       1 pound of John Morrellâ Hot and Tasty Pork Sausage

                       1 - 4.75 oz. can Hormelâ Potted Meat Food Product

                       (The show has abalone, that's kind of like sea snails right?

                       I think I'd rather use potted meat than snails. )

                       1 - 4 oz. can Pennsylvania Dutchâ mushroom stems and pieces.

                       I don't see them on Ms. Masamura's review, but I put them in

                       the pile in the kitchen anyway.

                       1 – 3 oz. box Jell-oâ Cook and Serve Coconut Cream pudding and pie filling.

                       I have egg roll wrappers, rice vinegar, and green ketchup.

                       Emeril's® Kick It Up™  Red Pepper Sauce.

                       6 small pumpkins. I couldn’t really find any small pumpkins.

                       I found something called carnival squash that looked sort of like pumpkins.
