The easiest way to get the skin off the pumpkin is to slice it into chunks (removing seeds and stringy parts with a large spoon. You can either steam it in a steamer or put water in a large roaster just to cover the bottom of the roaster with a wire rack and place the pumpkin (with skin) on the rack. Cook at 350 degrees for approximately 10 - 15 minutes. You can check by poking a fork through the skin. Take out and cool. Then peel off the skin. This is also a good technique for Hubbard squash that has a very tough skin.

Cut a hole around the stem and take it out. Scoop out all seeds and gush from inside, scraping the sides well. Draw out a stencil of what you want to cut on a paper, then tape it to the pumpkin. Use a sharp knife and cut from the stencil in clean strokes.
