It’s fudgy and a bit chewy and so doesn’t mimic the texture of real peda made using reduced milk, you know, the kind that takes hours at the stove.

Last fall, my brother-in-law, Josh, made the most amazing roasted kabocha squash for Thanksgiving. He cut it into wedges and cooked it with the skin still on. When it came out of the oven, the dense, bright orange flesh was smooth and creamy, with a sweet, nutty, and caramelized flavor. “What did you do to this?” I asked. “I just roasted it,” he said. Also known as Japanese pumpkin, kabocha squash is a wonderfully versatile winter squash variety....
