Preparation steps

1.

Halve the pumpkins, and remove the seeds and fibers. Peel and slice into about 1/2 inch pieces. Peel the garlic and pass through a press. Mix with the salt, cayenne pepper, and olive oil.

2.

Preheat the oven to 485°F. Place the pumpkin slices on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Brush with the spice oil, and cook for 15 minutes.

3.

For the vinaigrette, rinse the lemon in hot water. Pat dry and finely grate 1 teaspoon of zest. Squeeze the juice, and mix with the zest and honey. Season to taste with salt and 1 pinch cayenne pepper. Mix in the pumpkin seed oil.

4.

Clean and slice the mushrooms. Rinse, trim, and thinly slice the scallions. Mix together the mushrooms, scallions, and 4 tablespoons of vinaigrette.

5.

Flip the pumpkin slices, brush with the spice oil, and bake for another 10 minutes.

6.

Rinse, trim, and dry the mache. Add the pumpkin to a plate, top with the mushrooms and mache, and drizzle with the remaining vinaigrette.
