AUTHENTIC DULCE DE CALABAZA (MEXICAN PUMPKIN CANDY)
This is the real candy you can find at the flea market or your grandma's house! Hard on the outside, sweet and juicy on the inside. I used about half of the sugar the recipe calls for and it was sweet enough--you can taste the freshness of the fruit in every bite! You may find the hydrated lime (or calcium hydroxide, or slaked lime) in specialty grocery stores (Mexican product is called Cal) or garden center.

- Cover pumpkin with warm water and bring slowly to boiling point. Boil for 5 minutes.

CANDIED PUMPKIN ICE CREAM SYRUP
Steps:
- In medium saucepan combine water, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil and cook until liquid has reduced by about one-quarter and a light syrup forms, about 15 minutes. Add pumpkin or squash, reduce heat to very low and simmer gently until the pumpkin is translucent, about 45 minutes. If preparing in advance remove the pumpkin from syrup with a slotted spoon and store pumpkin separately. When ready to serve, combine the pumpkin and syrup in a small skillet and reheat over low heat. Just before serving, stir in the heavy cream. Spoon over ice cream and serve.;
