The season when I miss hot gratin and stew. However, making white sauce by yourself is troublesome because there are no ingredients and lumps are formed.

Therefore, I would like to recommend Ajinomoto's "Rumic White Cream Sauce," which allows you to make white sauce with just milk. You can see it at supermarkets, but if you buy it at the 100-yen shop "Daiso", you can get it for a little profit! This time, I will introduce a pumpkin gratin that is perfect for Halloween as well as how to use it ♪

Whole pumpkin gratin

One pumpkin (1.2 kg of chestnut pumpkin is used this time) is washed, placed on a bakeware while leaving water, wrapped and heated in a microwave oven. At this time, the point is to turn it upside down so that the bottom of the pumpkin does not become too soft (the standard heating time is about 15 minutes at 500W and about 12 minutes at 600W).


After heating, leave it for about 10 minutes and let it cool, then cut the top 1/3. Remove the seeds and cotton with a spoon and hollow out the flesh of the pumpkin, leaving about 1.5 cm on the outside.


Heat butter (10-15g (0.53oz)) in a frying pan and fry 1/2 chopped onions and sliced mushrooms until tender. Add the easy-to-eat sausage (bacon, shrimp, etc.) and fry, then add 1 bag of rumic and 250cc of milk. Let it boil for a while while mixing so that the whole is familiar.




Add the pumpkin pulp and heat it over low heat for a while, then add salt if the taste is not enough. Transfer to a pumpkin bowl, put cheese on it, and heat it in an oven at 200 degrees for about 20 minutes until it turns brown.




A slightly sweet rumic sauce and a slightly sweet pumpkin are entwined to create a rich taste. The saltiness of the fragrant cheese accentuates it, and your child will be happy to eat it! Of course, you can eat the whole bowl.


Lumic, whose "thickness" can be adjusted by adjusting the amount of milk and heating time, is convenient because it can be arranged in a wide range of dishes such as stew, doria, and cream pasta. It will be useful to stock up for the cold season!
