Well I had ordered Buttercup seeds and I did save some seeds from this "Kabocha" which I think may have been a Buttercup, so experimentation will take place, pending an improvement on last year's disastrous weather.
And the pancakes were excellent. I added a pinch or two of salt and some nutmeg. Also had to add some liquid as the batter was extremely firm...in part because I baked my squash uncovered, and in part because my Blendtec really whips things up. Also added one more egg to try to make it more runny, with no success. Added baking powder at the end, might add a little more next time, but cooked in butter and cooked in leftover bacon grease both worked very well and cakes were delicious. The extra egg made them a little TOO eggy in flavour, but wow these were good and I wouldn't hesitate to do them again.
