why this menu

This menu, in a nutshell

When you cut open a big red kuri squash for two or four, half of it always ends up left in the fridge. This menu flips the script: buy a beautiful 2 kg squash and turn it into three completely different textures.

A silky little soup to start, crispy pan-fried gnocchi in sage butter for the main course, and a tender cinnamon squash cake that fills the whole house with cozy aromas.

not a single crumb wasted!

Frequently asked questions

How much does this menu cost for 4?

Environ 19,60 € en tout, soit 4,90 € par personne : en cuisinant un seul gros potimarron en entier, le budget fond.

N'a-t-on pas l'impression de manger trois fois la même chose ?

Pas du tout : velouté crémeux aux châtaignes, dés rôtis à la sauge avec du parmesan, puis gâteau sucré à la cannelle.

Peut-on remplacer le potimarron par une butternut ?

Oui, prends une belle courge butternut de 1,8 kg et épluche-la au départ.
