Because pumpkin is a solid fruit, it can be stored for a long time. It can be stored in a cool, dry and ventilated corner for about 2 months. It should be noted that when storing, the handle of the pumpkin should be up.

If the handle of the pumpkin is facing down, the pumpkin will rot quickly. Of course, if it is a cut pumpkin, it is best to seal the incision with plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for refrigeration, and eat it as soon as possible within 1-2 days.

Pumpkin is rich in nutrients, such as polysaccharides, amino acids and carotene. Both fresh and tender pumpkins and yellow old pumpkins are good vegetables for all ages, and fried pumpkin seeds are also very fragrant.

Golden pumpkins can be picked and put on the bedroom or desk, and they can remain petite and exquisite for a year without rotting. When ripe, peel off the skin and dry it, and the viewing period can last for two or three years.
