One of the most famous pumpkin-related tales comes from Irish folklore. According to the legend, a man named Stingy Jack tricked the Devil several times and, as a result, was doomed to wander the Earth for eternity after his death. The Irish originally carved turnips to scare away Jack's spirit, but when Irish immigrants came to America, they found pumpkins were much more abundant and easier to carve. Thus, the pumpkin became the symbol of Halloween and the Jack-o’-lantern was born.
In early American history, pumpkins weren’t just for pies-they also played a role in some mischievous antics. In the late 19th century, a common prank among young boys was to steal pumpkins from farms and use them to smash windows or leave them on the steps of houses as a joke. This often happened around #halloween , blending into the mischief of the season.
The Story of Pumpkin Soup:
Pumpkins were a significant part of the Native American diet long before Europeans arrived in the Americas. They would roast, stew, and mash the pumpkin. When colonists arrived, they quickly adopted pumpkin into their diet, making everything from pumpkin pie to soups. Pumpkin soup, as a warm and filling dish, was particularly useful during harsh winters. However, it was sometimes seen as a "poor man’s food," since pumpkins were cheap and plentiful.
Funny angle: Early pumpkin soups often included a dash of beer or rum to "spice things up" and make it more palatable.
In more recent times, pumpkin soup has had a sort of renaissance thanks to the popularity of pumpkin spice everything. Recipes now abound for creamy pumpkin soup flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger-basically turning the soup into a savory-sweet dessert.
