Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Cut the pumpkin in half vertically
and discard the seeds and stringy pulp. Place the pumpkin, cut-sides
down, in a shallow baking dish and add water about a 1/2 inch high.
Bake for about 1 hour or until tender. The pumpkin is ready when it
is easily pierced with a fork. Cut each half into wedges and peel. A
3-pound pumpkin yields about 3 pounds cooked.
