Just ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, and butter, added to about 6 cups coarsely chopped green tomatoes. I’m not kidding it tastes exactly like apple pie. I would never have believed it if I hadn’t eaten it.

There used to be a striped green squash, cushaw, that could be made into a pie just like pumpkin pie (I make my pumpkin pie with fresh or frozen pumpkin). Cushaw kept well, tasted just fine, and I used to make (when I could get the seeds and grow it) a cushaw raisin pie that was the equal of any dessert pie ever made. I always put pecans in mine...

Oh yes, curshaws, I remember those. My grandfather used to plant them.
I don’t remember what Grandma did with them though.
