The giant pumpkin is one of the largest pumpkin varieties. With its impressive appearance and bright orange skin, it is not only popular as a decoration in the autumn but also in the kitchen. The flesh of the giant pumpkin is firm and slightly sweet, making it perfect for soups, purées, or stews.
Pumpkins are sensitive to ethylene gas. Avoid placing them next to ethylene-producing vegetables such as apples, pears, and tomatoes to prevent them from wilting faster.
Avoid stacking the pumpkins. Although the skin is firm, pumpkins are sensitive to pressure marks and cracks.
Place pumpkins next to autumn ingredients to encourage sales.
The giant pumpkins from BelOrta are grown in open fields, meaning they grow naturally outdoors. This growing method allows the pumpkins to ripen in a calm and balanced way, resulting in a full and juicy flavor. The sunlight and fresh air contribute to the quality and freshness of the product.
